Georg Zigldrum commented on HIVE-9263:
--------------------------------------
Beeline should report a non zero exit code if the query results in an error.
Currently the exit code is 0 so that the shell script would not recognize an
error.
Example:
# cat test.sh
=========================
#!/bin/bash
beeline -e "show tables in abc"
echo "Retun Code - $?"
=========================
This will give a return code of 0 despite the error:
> sh test.sh
Error: Error while compiling statement: FAILED: SemanticException [Error
10072]: Database does not exist: abc (state=42000,code=10072)
Retun Code - 0
> Implement controllable exit code in beeline

> It would be nice if beeline implemented something like SQLPlus WHENEVER to
> control exit codes. This would be useful when performing beeline actions
> through a shell script.
