viirya edited a comment on issue #25570: [SPARK-23519][SQL] create view should work from query with duplicate output columns URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/25570#issuecomment-524844659 hmm I am not sure if ALTER VIEW AS should take the schema of the new query, or it should keep original schema, and just replace old query? That's right, you described is what ALTER VIEW AS works now. Hive's document https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-AlterViewAsSelect, doesn't talk the details, just says it works as CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW. But I can't find Hive doc of CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW. I assume it works like Spark SQL. Postgresql has CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW, but interestingly, the new query in CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW must generate same column names in the same order and data types. No ALTER VIEW AS in Postgresql. I thought ALTER VIEW AS only replaces old query, and keeps original schema. But seems it isn't how ALTER VIEW AS works now.
