John Sichi reassigned HIVE-1070: -------------------------------- Assignee: John Sichi (was: Vikram Chandrasekhar) > CREATE VIEW followup: add support for column-aliasing on subselect and use > it when storing view definition with column renaming > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1070 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1070 > 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 > > > Copied from the original comment: > If you do CREATE VIEW v(x,y) AS SELECT a+1,b+2 FROM t > then we'll store the expanded view def as SELECT `_c0` AS `x`,`_c1` AS `y` > FROM (SELECT `t`.`a`+1,`t`.`b`+2 FROM `t`) `v` > As a result, if hive ever changes its convention for generating anonymous > expression names (_c0, _c1, ...), such stored view definitions will break. > The only way I can think of to avoid this is to implement SQL:200n's > column-alias-by-position construct , e.g. > (SELECT `t`.`a`+1,`t`.`b`+2 FROM `t`) AS `v`(`x`,`y`) > (similar to what was done for LATERAL VIEW). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
