Xiu updated HIVE-3194: ---------------------- Affects Version/s: 0.11.0 Status: Patch Available (was: Open) This patch supplies information on canonical JDBC scalar functions in HiveDatabaseMetaData class by providing a comma-separated list of the Open Group CLI names of numeric functions and string functions. The corresponding testcase is also added. In terms of mod(), Hive is supporting "a % b" but not mod(a, b) right now, unlike MySQL, which supports both. The support of semantic "mod(a, b)" should be a good idea. I will create another JIRA for this. > implement the JDBC canonical/ISO-SQL 2012 scalar functions > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3194 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3194 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: JDBC, SQL, UDF > Affects Versions: 0.11.0, 0.8.0 > Reporter: N Campbell > Attachments: Hive-3194.patch > > > The Hive driver does not return any canonical JDBC scalar functions (per JDBC > 3.0/4.0). Similarly, while Hive has various 'similar' scalar functions their > signature (name etc) is not the same as ISO-SQL equivalent. It would be > better for portable dynamic SQL applications to see more alignment by Hive > etc to both standards. In some cases it is small syntactic changes/tweaks > (i.e. see mod, substring etc). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
