Artem Ervits commented on PIG-5079:
-----------------------------------
I confirm that this also affects Pig 0.16 as my results with immutable = true
led to the same error message as [~reddyppr] thus the community article I
provided in the earlier comments. Feature enhancement is definitely useful as
I've come across multiple instances where it was an expected behavior. Can this
JIRA serve as that or we need a new one?
> HCatalog - overwrite
> --------------------
>
> Key: PIG-5079
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-5079
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: build, data
> Affects Versions: 0.15.0
> Reporter: Praveen PentaReddy
> Priority: Minor
>
> In HCatalog, i am using hive table and doing transformation and after
> completing the transformation i want to overwrite the data back to the same
> hive table.however, while writing back the data to the same table, the
> transformed data is getting appended rather not getting overwrite.
> It would be good if we have option like overwrite so that if need we can use
> overwrite or append as we have this kind of feature in hive while importing
> the data into a hive table.
