Todd Wilson created HIVE-13031:
----------------------------------
Summary: List object type with database object
Key: HIVE-13031
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13031
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: ODBC
Reporter: Todd Wilson
SHOW TABLES IN <DATABASE> will currently list tables and views. It would be
helpful to also have the table type or object type returned with the list of
object names so that a DESCRIBE command doesn't need to be run on each object.
Our application uses object type quite frequently and to be able to pull this
information at one time during a SHOW TABLE EXTENDED for example would be
preferred over having to run DESCRIBE for each object in the database. We're
using the Hive ODBC driver to connect. Thanks.
