John Sichi updated HIVE-1220:
-----------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-1220.1.patch
Once this is committed, I will update wiki docs accordingly.
Notes for reviewers:
* Now TBLPROPERTIES can be specified for both tables and views, for both CREATE
and ALTER.
* For some reason, Hive.g was using KW_PROPERTIES; I changed it to
KW_TBLPROPERTIES to reduce my own confusion.
* I had to get rid of one metastore-side validation since it didn't have enough
context to discriminate the different forms of ALTER. I think in general it's
probably difficult for metastore to validate everything that ql can.
> accept TBLPROPERTIES on CREATE TABLE/VIEW

> Currently, Hive only supports ALTER TABLE t SET TBLPROPERTIES, but does not
> allow specification of table properties during CREATE TABLE. We should allow
> properties to be set at the time a table or view is created. This is useful
> in general, and in particular we want to use this so that storage handler
> properties (see HIVE-705) unrelated to serdes can be specified here rather
> than in SERDEPROPERTIES. See also HIVE-1144 regarding views.
