Fredy Wijaya created HIVE-21807: ----------------------------------- Summary: Provide a variant of IMetaStoreClient.createTable() that returns populated Table Key: HIVE-21807 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-21807 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Metastore Affects Versions: 3.0.0 Reporter: Fredy Wijaya
Currently https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/6664c44c795e467c08c79948270409f03a86d8c2/standalone-metastore/metastore-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/IMetaStoreClient.java#L1678-L1679 does not provide a way to return a create timestamp and many other information from the Table. Calling IMetastore.getTable() isn't an atomic operation and can be slightly racy. By having a variant of IMetastoreClient.createTable() that returns a populated Table, we can make this operation atomic and avoid any race condition. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
