------------------------------------------

             Summary: No secondary prompt
                 Key: HIVE-13783
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13783
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Beeline
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Vihang Karajgaonkar
            Priority: Minor

# beeline -u jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000
[...]
Beeline version 1.1.0-cdh5.4.5 by Apache Hive
0: jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000> "
0: jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000> select * from foo;
Error: Error while compiling statement: FAILED: ParseException line 2:17 
character '<EOF>' not supported here (state=42000,code=40000)
0: jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000>

After (accidentally) entering a lonely quote character on its own line and 
pressing Enter, I get back the normal prompt. This easily makes me believe I'm 
about to type a new command from scratch, e.g. a select query as in the 
example, which ends up not working due to parsing error.

Expected behavior: When a previous command is continued, or a quote is opened 
or anything like this, a differently looking secondary prompt should be 
displayed rather than the normal prompt; as this is done in e.g. hive, impala, 
mysql, bash..., e.g.:

{noformat}
# beeline -u jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000
[...]
Beeline version 1.1.0-cdh5.4.5 by Apache Hive
0: jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000> "
                               > ...
