Hyunsik Choi updated TAJO-304:
------------------------------

    Attachment: TAJO-304.patch

I changed the plan. I modified DDL statement as follows:
{code}
DROP TABLE table_name [PURGE]
{code}

PURGE is given, 'DROP TABLE' deletes the table from catalog and purges all 
data. Otherwise, 'DROP TABLE' just deletes a table from catalog.

> drop table command should not remove data files in default

> h3. Problem
> In the current implementation, Tajo removes a data directory when a user 
> issues 'drop table' command. But, it is very dangerous in many cases. For 
> example, some users may lost large data sets.
> h3. Solution
> In default, Tajo should not remove a data directory, and we need to add a 
> config property 'tajo.command.drop_table.data_removal' for those who want to 
> change the behavior of 'drop table'.
