Naveen Gangam updated HIVE-14558: --------------------------------- Attachment: HIVE-14558.4.patch Skipping patch index .3 and attaching .4 directly. This is to match the version attaching to the reviewboard. In the new patch, 1) Repurpose ShowTablesDesc to incorporate a type for the tables. This can also be used for "show views" where there the type becomes "TableType.VIRTUAL_VIEW. Deleted the ShowViewsDesc class that was added as part of this fix. 2) Using TableType instead of String for the type of the tables being fetched. I will upload a new patch with those changes. > Add support for listing views similar to "show tables" > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-14558 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14558 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Hive > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Naveen Gangam > Assignee: Naveen Gangam > Attachments: HIVE-14558.1.patch, HIVE-14558.2.patch, > HIVE-14558.4.patch > > > Users have been asking for such feature where they can get a lists of views > separately. > So perhaps a syntax similar to "show tables" command? > show views [in/from <dbName>] [<pattern>] > Does it make sense to add such command? or is it not worth the effort? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
