Prasad Mujumdar created HIVE-8083: ------------------------------------- Summary: Authorization DDLs should not enforce hive identifier syntax for user or group namesname that Key: HIVE-8083 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8083 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: SQL, SQLStandardAuthorization Affects Versions: 0.13.1, 0.13.0 Reporter: Prasad Mujumdar Assignee: Prasad Mujumdar
The compiler expects principals (user, group and role) as hive identifiers for authorization DDLs. The user and group are entities that belong to external namespace and we can't expect those to follow hive identifier syntax rules. For example, a userid or group can contain '-' which is not allowed by compiler. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
