Sun Rui commented on HIVE-7097:
-------------------------------
[~cartershanklin] Thanks for your explanation. I happened to use REGEX columns
to shorten several queries. I can do a one-shot change to not use it, since the
community have not opposed to this breaking of backward compatibility. Could
you update the documentation to reflect the new behavior?
> The Support for REGEX Column Broken in HIVE 0.13
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-7097
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7097
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Query Processor
> Affects Versions: 0.13.0
> Reporter: Sun Rui
>
> The Support for REGEX Column is OK in HIVE 0.12, but is broken in HIVE 0.13.
> For example:
> {code:sql}
> select `key.*` from src limit 1;
> {code}
> will fail in HIVE 0.13 with the following error from SemanticAnalyzer:
> {noformat}
> FAILED: SemanticException [Error 10004]: Line 1:7 Invalid table alias or
> column reference 'key.*': (possible column names are: key, value)
> {noformat}
> This issue is related to HIVE-6037. When set
> "hive.support.quoted.identifiers=none", the issue will be gone.
> I am not sure the configuration was intended to break regex column. But at
> least the documentation needs to be updated:
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Select#LanguageManualSelect-REGEXColumnSpecification
> I would argue backward compatibility is more important.
