Harish Butani commented on HIVE-896:
------------------------------------

The syntax now is different from the original patch. Here is an e.g. from 
ptf_npath.q test file

{noformat}
select origin_city_name, fl_num, year, month, day_of_month, sz, tpath 
from npath(on 
        flights_tiny 
        distribute by fl_num 
        sort by year, month, day_of_month  
      arg1('LATE.LATE+'), 
      arg2('LATE'), arg3(arr_delay > 15), 
    arg4('origin_city_name, fl_num, year, month, day_of_month, size(tpath) as 
sz, tpath[0].day_of_month as tpath') 
   );  
{noformat}

One thing I should point out is that it is not clear if NPath will remain in 
its current form.
