---------------------------------
Summary: Add "select database()" command to show the current
database
Key: HIVE-4144
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4144
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: SQL
Reporter: Mark Grover
A recent hive-user mailing list conversation asked about having a command to
show the current database.

MySQL seems to have a command to do so:
{code}
select database();
{code}

We should look into having something similar in Hive.
