Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-6332:
--------------------------------------
[~sushanth], you could flesh out the introduction with instructions on
how/where/when to set these properties. If they shouldn't be set by users, you
could say they're generally set by administrators. A simple example or two
would be helpful.
Right now I'm documenting hcat.dynamic.partitioning.custom.pattern (HIVE-6109)
but it isn't much use without information about how to set it. The jira
description calls it a job config -- does that mean it can be set for a single
CREATE/ALTER TABLE statement? Is that generally true of HCatConstants configs?

> HCatConstants documentation is near non-existent, being defined only as
> comments in code for the various parameters. Given that a lot of api winds up
> being implemented as knobs that can be tweaked here, we should have a public
> facing doc for this.
