@jackylk @sraghunandan Hi, Iâm studying the query related code and find
this line of code may cause a problem.
The member variable `metadata.tablesMeta` in `CarbonFileMetaStore` is a
list based, not Guava-Cache-like based. The action in `refreshCache` will
emptied the list but there is no corresponding action to fulfill it.
For example, in `CarbonSessionState.refreshRelationFromCache(...)`, it
firstly calls `checkSchemasModifiedTimeAndReloadTables`, which calls
`refreshCache` internally.
And then it will call `getTableFromMetadataCache`, which just does a search
in `metadata.tablesMeta`. But the value of `metadata.tablesMeta` is empty.
As a result, `CarbonSessionState.refreshRelationFromCache` actually does
nothing.
I haven't test it due to lack of environment. Could you review this and
correct me if I am wrong.
Ps: Keeping the `loadMetaData(...)` here is OK in my environment.
