Dean Wampler updated HIVE-3929: ------------------------------- Summary: wiki documentation for partition filtering and outer joins doesn't match behavior (was: wiki documentation for partition filtering and out joins doesn't match behavior) > wiki documentation for partition filtering and outer joins doesn't match > behavior > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3929 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3929 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Documentation > Affects Versions: 0.7.0, 0.8.1, 0.9.0, 0.10.0 > Environment: Linux > Reporter: Dean Wampler > > The wiki discussion of OUTER JOINs correctly describes the behavior of WHERE > clauses with regards to partition filters. Namely, that they don't work as > expected, because the WHERE clause is evaluated after the join has been > performed. > However, the description then says that you can move these partition filters > into the ON clause to achieve partition filtering. In fact, these filters > have no effect. > The only working solution I know of is to use nested SELECTS that apply the > partition filters, then join on the results. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
