Siddhant Saraf created HIVE-12617: ------------------------------------- Summary: Documentation: More information about the 'like' operator Key: HIVE-12617 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12617 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Documentation Reporter: Siddhant Saraf Priority: Minor
The documentation for built-in relational operator "LIKE" does not clearly define what level of regular expression does it support. It just says "TRUE if string A matches the SQL simple regular expression B, otherwise FALSE." I would like a proper definition of "SQL simple regular expression". I'm also specifically interested in knowing if it support character classes ? etc. Kindly improve the documentation regarding the "LIKE" operator. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
