Ashish Thusoo commented on HIVE-1374:
-------------------------------------
Is doing explain on the query enough? If the proposal to convert queries into
explains when run with -c option?
Also consider the following example in a query.hql script..
create table foo(bar string);
insert overwrite table foo select c1 from old_foo;
What would happen to the create statement in this compile only option?
Maybe it is better to provide a switch to do parse only checks?

> A compile-only option might be useful for helping users quickly prototype
> queries, fix errors, and do test runs. The proposed change would be adding a
> -c switch that behaves like -e but only compiles the specified query.
