Carl Steinbach commented on HIVE-4568: -------------------------------------- Have you considered implementing this functionality a level down in Hive's JDBC driver instead of placing it in Beeline? One major advantage of this alternative approach is that it makes the feature available to all JDBC clients instead of limiting it to Beeline. > Beeline needs to support resolving variables > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4568 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4568 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.10.0 > Reporter: Xuefu Zhang > Assignee: Xuefu Zhang > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.11.1 > > Attachments: HIVE-4568.patch > > > Beeline currently doesn't support variable (system, env, etc) substitution as > hive client does. Supporting this feature will certainly make it more usable. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
