> This comes at slightly more complex for server implementations. And potential confusion on limitations for specific tables. This might be limited to some extend if we had a different GetMetadata action so implementations know to expect a query to specific pseudo-table. I expect we would provide library wrappers over JDBC to also ease implementation. We don't have a GetMetadata action, but we could encode it in GetFlightInfo by sending a different command payload. That would let us cleanly namespace the special tables and the actual tables. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
