Paul Yang updated HIVE-1238:
----------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-1238.1.patch
* Added get_partition* with ps suffix for "partial specification". Updated
Hive.java to include similar functions.
* Added SHOW PARTITIONS table PARTITION(...) to filter partitions that are
displayed.
Note that there is an inefficiency with get_partitions_ps() - it fetches all
the partitions and then filters based on the supplied partition specification.
A better approach would be to modify the JDO query, but it doesn't seem there
is a way to access individual elements of a collection (partition values are
stored in a list).

> Currently, the metastore API only allows retrieval of all the partitions of a
> table, or the retrieval of a single partition given a complete partition
> specification. For HIVE-936, a method to retrieve all partitions that match a
> partial partition specification would be useful.
