Vinithra Varadharajan commented on HIVE-1126: --------------------------------------------- Hi Bennie, Can I pick this JIRA up? Thanks. > Missing some Jdbc functionality like getTables getColumns and > HiveResultSet.get* methods based on column name. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1126 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1126 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Clients > Affects Versions: 0.6.0 > Reporter: Bennie Schut > Assignee: Bennie Schut > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HIVE-1126-1.patch, HIVE-1126.patch, > HIVE-1126_patch(0.5.0_source).patch > > > I've been using the hive jdbc driver more and more and was missing some > functionality which I added > HiveDatabaseMetaData.getTables > Using "show tables" to get the info from hive. > HiveDatabaseMetaData.getColumns > Using "describe tablename" to get the columns. > This makes using something like SQuirreL a lot nicer since you have the list > of tables and just click on the content tab to see what's in the table. > I also implemented > HiveResultSet.getObject(String columnName) so you call most get* methods > based on the column name. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
