Furcy Pin commented on HIVE-6986:
---------------------------------

Hi Ashutosh,

r.startsWith("select") wouldn't match upper cases, and unfortunately there is 
no built-in String.startsWithIgnoreCase in Java I believe.

r.toLowerCase().equals("select") would work of course, but I wanted to preserve 
the initial (futile) optimisation with the r.substring(0,6), so that
we don't cast the whole query to lowercase, but just its prefix.

> MatchPath fails with small resultExprString
