Namit Jain commented on HIVE-69:
--------------------------------


The following query will not work:

select count(1) FROM ( select a.x as x from x  UNION  ALL  select b.x as x from 
b ) out;

Union followed by reduce sink will not work  - since we have already made the 
child of reduce sink null.

It can be easily fixed in the new framework since tree walking/splitting etc. 
are independent






> genMapRedTasks does not use the tree walker and uses implicit state which 
> makes it difficult to enhance

> In SemanticAnalyzer, genmapredtasks() does not use a tree walker. For 
> map-side joins, the taskplan needs to be enhanced to be possibly
> broken at MapSink also. Basically, the code is very difficult to enhance 
> since there are implicit assumptions that reduce sink is the only
> operator where the plan breaks.
> This should be enhanced so that the user can implement their own task 
> generation logic which is independent of the tree walking.
