Cannot express non-alphanumeric characters in partition filter expressions
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HCATALOG-369
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-369
Project: HCatalog
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.4
Reporter: Alan Gates
If a partition value has a non-alphanumeric character, it is impossible to
provide a filter that matches that partition value. For example, if the filter
description is {{b=abc%5C%27def}}, there's no way to specify that in a
MapReduce or Pig job. The ASCII URL escaping used by Hive to store the values
should be supported. Ideally Unicode escaping and traditional string escapes
would work as well.
