Navis commented on HIVE-6992: ----------------------------- I think this can be implemented with HIVE-4923, which is not yet committed and seemed not to be. > Implement PreparedStatement.getMetaData(), getParmeterMetaData() > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-6992 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6992 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: JDBC > Reporter: Bill Oliver > > It would be very helpful to have methods PreparedStatement.getMetaData() and > also PreparedStatement.getParameterMetaData() implemented. > I especially would like PreparedStatmeent.getMetaData() implemented, as I > could prepare a SQL statement, and then get information about the result set, > as well as information that the query is valid. > I am pretty sure this information is available in some form. When you do an > "EXPLAIN query", the explain operation shows information about the result set > including the column name/aliases and the column types. > thanks you > -bill -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
