------------------------------------

+1

Absolutely makes sense. We have talked about that in the past. Also it makes 
bind variables in queries possible in the future.

> Split Driver.run() into compile() + exec()

>                 Key: HIVE-385
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-385
>             Project: Hadoop Hive
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Query Processor
>            Reporter: Neil Conway
>
> Currently, Driver.run() parses, analyzes, and then executes a given query 
> string. This isn't very flexible: it would be nice to be able to parse and 
> analyze a query to get a query plan, and then execute that query plan at a 
> later time (zero or more times). This would also be a necessary prerequisite 
> for supporting server-side prepared statements.
> I'd like to change Driver as follows:
> * Add a new method Driver.compile(String), which parses and analyzes the 
> given query string, and returns an object representing the planned query
> * Add a new method Driver.execute(Plan), which runs the given planned query
> * Reimplement run(String) as { p = compile(String); execute(p); }
> Comments welcome; I should have a candidate patch ready soon.
