             Summary: Unmatched quotes in comments confuse shell
                 Key: IMPALA-7042
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-7042
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: Impala 2.12.0
            Reporter: Alan Jackoway


This jira is really similar to IMPALA-696 and IMPALA-2803 each of which claim 
to be fixed, but this is still happening to me on 2.12.0.

Basically the issue is that this command requires you to close the quote in 
impala-shell:
{code:sql}
> -- Alan's test query
> select 1 + 1;
> ';
{code}
Then it runs after closing the quote on the third line.

With a double quote, the behavior is even worse:
{code:sql}
> -- Alan"s test query
> select 1 + 1;
> ";
> ";
{code}
I haven't found any way to convince impala the quote is closed and run the 
query with a double quote in the comment. Fortunately unmatched double quotes 
in comments should be rare. Unmatched single quotes come up in our comments 
fairly frequently, which is how I found this.
