Listing views as regular tables in `SHOW TABLES` is also done in MySQL or [Drill](https://drill.apache.org/docs/show-tables/). According to the definition, a view is a "virtual table" and thus works for all table-related operations. We can implement `SHOW FULL TABLES` or `SHOW VIEWS` (as in [Hive](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-ShowTables))in a follow-up issue that shows more meta information. What do you think?
`DESCRIBE` should also have the same behavior in for both table and view (as seen [here for example](https://docs.oracle.com/javadb/10.8.3.0/tools/rtoolsijcomrefdescribe.html)) [ Full content available at: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/6606 ] This message was relayed via gitbox.apache.org for [email protected]
