Prasad Chakka commented on HIVE-701:
------------------------------------
i think quoted reserved words work fine as column tables or table names. that
is how mysql works and i remember someone making this fix long time ago. if not
then we should make that fix as part of this JIRA.
> lots of reserved keywords in hive

> Project: Hadoop Hive
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Query Processor
> Reporter: Namit Jain
>
> There is a problem if we want to use some reserved keywords:
> for example, creating a function of name left/right ? left/right is already a
> reserved keyword.
> The other way around should also be possible - if we want to add a 'show
> tables status' and some applications already use status as a column name,
> they should not break
