--------------------------------------

             Summary: AddPartitionMessage.getPartitions() can return null
                 Key: HIVE-9609
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9609
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Sushanth Sowmyan
            Assignee: Sushanth Sowmyan


DbNotificationListener and NotificationListener both depend on 
AddPartitionEvent.getPartitions() to get their partitions to trigger a message, 
but this can be null if an AddPartitionEvent was initialized on a PartitionSpec 
rather than a List<Partition>.

Also, AddPartitionEvent seems to have a duality, where getPartitions() works 
only if instantiated on a List<Partition>, and getPartitionIterator() works 
only if instantiated on a PartitionSpec.
