Xiao Li commented on SPARK-4114: -------------------------------- This sounds not a direction we want to continue. Close it now. Thanks! > Use stable Hive API (if one exists) for communication with Metastore > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-4114 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4114 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: SQL > Reporter: Patrick Wendell > Priority: Critical > > If one exists, we should use a stable API for our communication with the Hive > metastore. Specifically, we don't want to have to support compiling against > multiple versions of the Hive library to support users with different > versions of the Hive metastore. > I think this is what HCatalog API's are intended for, but I don't know enough > about Hive and HCatalog to be sure. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
