Sun Rui commented on SPARK-15159: --------------------------------- [~felixcheung], I guess you are talking about SQLContext, not HiveContext. For SQLContext, it is kept for backward compatibility, we don't need to change it for now. HiveContext is deprecated, not removed. However, I don't think it is a big change. Two pieces only: 1. Modify SparkRHive.init() to use SparkSession; 2. Investigate if we need to change using of TestHiveContext in SparkR unit tests. A rough look seems no change is needed. But not sure.
