CREATE VIEW followup:  derive dependencies on underlying base table partitions 
from view definition
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-1079
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1079
             Project: Hadoop Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Query Processor
    Affects Versions: 0.6.0
            Reporter: John Sichi
            Assignee: John Sichi
             Fix For: 0.6.0


When querying a view, it would be useful to know which underlying base table 
partitions it depends on in order to know how fresh the result is (or to be 
able to wait until all of those partitions have been loaded consistently).  The 
task is to come up with a way to perform this analysis automatically (possibly 
overconservatively), or alternately to let the view creator annotate the view 
definition with this dependency information, or some combination of the two.

Note that this would be useful for any complex query which directly accesses 
base tables (not just view definitions).
