He Yongqiang commented on HIVE-1781:
------------------------------------

For a query like "select key, value from src where key < 10", the outputs used 
to be a temp file, now the outputs are empty. Is this good.
Will the outputs be null if do a "insert overwrite [local] directory select 
key, value from src"?

> outputs not populated for dynamic partitions at compile time

> insert overwrite table tstsrcpart partition (ds, hr) select key, value, ds, 
> hr where ds <= '2008-04-08'

> As is evident from above, the outputs are not populated at all at compile 
> time.
> This may create a problem for many components that depend on outputs: 
> locking, authorization etc.
> However, the exact set of outputs may be needed for some other components 
> (for example. the
> internal deployment in Facebook has a replication hook which is used for 
> replication which needs the
> exact set of outputs). It may  be a good idea to extend WriteEntity to 
> include a flag which indicates
> whether the output is complete or not, and then the hook can look at that 
> flag if needed
