If we look at `dropTable()`, I wonder why it returns `false` when a table doesn't exist: https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/ec1560af251d2c3580f5bccfabc750f1c7af09df/sql/catalyst/src/main/java/org/apache/spark/sql/connector/catalog/TableCatalog.java#L171 though other methods in the same interface throw an exception: https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/ec1560af251d2c3580f5bccfabc750f1c7af09df/sql/catalyst/src/main/java/org/apache/spark/sql/connector/catalog/TableCatalog.java#L157 This looks inconsistent to me. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
