> if (desc == null ||
> !AlterTableDesc.doesAlterTableTypeSupportPartialPartitionSpec(desc.getOp())) {
> throw new SemanticException(
> ErrorMsg.ALTER_TABLE_TYPE_PARTIAL_PARTITION_SPEC_NO_SUPPORTED,
> desc.getOp().name());
> } else if (!conf.getBoolVar(HiveConf.ConfVars.DYNAMICPARTITIONING)) {
> throw new SemanticException(ErrorMsg.DYNAMIC_PARTITION_DISABLED);
> }
> {code}
> You check for whether {{desc}} is null but then use it to do {{desc.getOp()}}.
