Namit Jain commented on HIVE-132:
---------------------------------
1. The same change needs to be done for showParitions also in DDLTask
2. Remove all the context specific code from Driver.fetch() - fetch only needs
to invoke fetchtask now.
3. Can you add more comments ?
> Show table and describe results should be read via FetchTask

> Right now there is a different code path in the Driver for show
> tables/describe etc. By adding the FetchTask the code paths will be merged.
> In addition, the results of these statements will be readable via JDBC.
> Going forward, we should provide SQL access to our metastore similar to
> access provided by Oracle or mysql to their catalog tables. In this jira, I
> will just add schema information to show tables and describe queries.
