James Taylor updated PHOENIX-2058: ---------------------------------- Assignee: Thomas D'Silva (was: Samarth Jain) > Check for existence and compatibility of columns being added in view > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PHOENIX-2058 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-2058 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: James Taylor > Assignee: Thomas D'Silva > > One check I realized we're not doing, but need to do, is ensuring that the > column being added by the base table doesn't already exist in the view. If > the column does already exist, ideally we can allow the addition to the base > table if the type matches and the scale is null or >= existing scale and the > maxLength is null or >= existing maxLength. Also, if a column is a PK column > and it already exists in the view, the position in the PK must match. > The fact that we've materialized a PTable for the view should make the > addition of this check easier. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
