Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-4042: ---------------------------------------- Whats the point of adding *yet another config and defaulting it to false* ? As I see this, whole point of this patch is not to fail the production query when it has hints. With default value being false, queries will still fail. I don't see any merit of this config at all. Why cant we *always* ignore map-join hint? For the case Kevin brought up you have already added logging and relies on user to rewrite their query using that logging info. > ignore mapjoin hint > ------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4042 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4042 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Query Processor > Reporter: Namit Jain > Assignee: Namit Jain > Attachments: hive.4042.1.patch, hive.4042.2.patch, hive.4042.3.patch > > > After HIVE-3784, in a production environment, it can become difficult to > deploy since a lot of production queries can break. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
