Zheng Shao updated HIVE-804:
----------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-804.1.patch
This patch allows deletion of partitions by specifying any subset of the
partition names.
This should be good enough for most cases for now. We can add arbitrary
expression later when we see such a need.
> Support deletion of partitions based on a prefix partition spefication

> Sometimes users create partitions like (date='...', time='...'). It is useful
> if user can delete all the partitions of the same day (and different time)
> with a single command:
> {code}
> ALTER TABLE test DROP PARTITION (date='2009-08-26');
> {code}
