Zheng Shao updated HIVE-416:
----------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-416.1.2.branch-0.3.patch
This patch is for branch-0.3. It seems without this, the TestNegativeCliDriver
sometimes produce wrong error messages (undeterministically). That is probably
caused by the backtracking which is fixed with this patch.
Please commit this one to branch-0.3.

> Hive.g now still uses "backtrack=true". "backtrack" not only slows down the
> parsing in case of error, it can also produce wrong syntax error messages
> (usually based on the last try of the backtracking).
> We should follow
> http://www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ANTLR3/How+to+remove+global+backtracking+from+your+grammar
> to remove the need of doing backtrack.
