Sergey Shelukhin updated HIVE-18240:
------------------------------------
Description:
These are JDBC APIs that allow the user of the driver to provide client info to
the server; the list of the fields supported by the driver is returned as a
result set by getClientInfoProperties API.
I've looked at IBM, Oracle, MS etc. docs and it seems like ApplicationName is a
common one; there's also ClientHostname, etc. that we don't need because HS2
derives them already.
The client will then set these properties via setClientInfo if desired. Whether
it is desired by any BI tools of significance I've no idea.
The properties are sent to the server on connect (which is what Microsoft seems
to do, but in Hive model it's impossible because HiveConnection connects in
ctor), or on the next query (I don't recall where I've seen this), or
immediately (which is what I do in this patch).
The getClientInfo API on the driver side seems completely pointless, so I cache
clientinfo locally for it.
