> Key: HIVE-3680
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3680
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Metastore
> Affects Versions: 0.9.1
> Reporter: Mithun Radhakrishnan
> Assignee: Mithun Radhakrishnan
> Fix For: 0.10.0
>
> Attachments: HIVE-3680.branch9.patch, HIVE-3680.trunk.patch

>
> This has to do with a minor overhaul of the HCatalog notifications that we're
> attempting in HCATALOG-546.
> It is proposed that HCatalog's notifications (on Add/Drop of Partitions)
> provide details to identify the affected partitions.
> Using the Partition object in AddPartitionEvent, one is able to retrieve the
> values of the partition-keys and the name of the Table. However, the
> partition-keys themselves aren't available (since the Table instance isn't
> part of the AddPartitionEvent).
> Adding the table-reference to the AddPartitionEvent and DropPartitionEvent
> classes will expose all the info we need. (The alternative is to query the
> metastore for the table's schema and use the partition-keys from there. :/)
> I'll post a patch for this shortly.
