Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-6561:
-----------------------------------
Thanks for the patch, [~navis]. I went thru it briefly and had the following
questions:
1. When Beeline is started, it may not connect to any HS2. In that case, it
probably doesn't make sense to execute the init file. This is different from
Hive CLI, which will always have DB to work on.
2. When a Beeline makes a connection to a DB, we probably should execute the
init file.
Thus, I was thinking that executing the init file is tied to a DB connection.
No connection, no execution. For each connection, the init file should be
execute once.
What is your thought on this?
> Beeline should accept -i option to Initializing a SQL file
