Sumit Kumar commented on HIVE-7097:
-----------------------------------

Basically this doesn't seem to be an issue but it would help if we clarify this 
in [Select 
documentation|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Select]
 as well . 

> The Support for REGEX Column Broken in HIVE 0.13
> ------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: HIVE-7097
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7097
>             Project: Hive
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Query Processor
>    Affects Versions: 0.13.0
>            Reporter: Sun Rui
>
> The Support for REGEX Column is OK in HIVE 0.12, but is broken in HIVE 0.13.
> For example:
> {code:sql}
> select `key.*` from src limit 1;
> {code}
> will fail in HIVE 0.13 with the following error from SemanticAnalyzer:
> {noformat}
> FAILED: SemanticException [Error 10004]: Line 1:7 Invalid table alias or 
> column reference 'key.*': (possible column names are: key, value)
> {noformat}
> This issue is related to HIVE-6037. When set 
> "hive.support.quoted.identifiers=none", the issue will be gone.
> I am not sure the configuration was intended to break regex column. But at 
> least the documentation needs to be updated: 
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Select#LanguageManualSelect-REGEXColumnSpecification
> I would argue backward compatibility is more important.
