Xuefu Zhang created HIVE-4566:
---------------------------------
Summary: NullPointerException if typeinfo and nativesql commands
are executed at beeline before a DB connection is established
Key: HIVE-4566
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4566
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: CLI
Affects Versions: 0.11.0
Reporter: Xuefu Zhang
Before a DB connection is established, executing a command such as typeinfo and
nativesql results an NPE shown at the console:
beeline> !typeinfo
java.lang.NullPointerException
beeline> !nativesql
java.lang.NullPointerException
Instead, a message, such as "No current connection" should be given, as in case
of some other commands, such as dropall.
