Jark Wu updated FLINK-17922:
----------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 1.13.0)
1.14.0
> Refactor generic and hive table rules for HiveCatalog
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-17922
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-17922
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Connectors / Hive
> Reporter: Jingsong Lee
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.14.0
>
>
> Now the underlying rules are:
> * HiveCatalog.createTable , hive table has false of {{isGeneric}} flag,
> generic table has no flag.
> * HiveCatalog.getTable , generic table has true of {{isGeneric}} flag, hive
> table has no flag.
> It is very difficult to understand and easy to cause bugs.
> Whether it's {{createTable}} or {{getTable}} of {{HiveCatalog}}, there should
> be two types of objects that are consistent: {{HiveCatalogTable}} and Flink
> {{CatalogTableImpl}}.
> Timo: From a logical perspective, the {{HiveCatalog}} should deal with this
> additional property while storing and retrieving a {{CatalogTable}}. The
> {{isGeneric}} should not travel through the stack of regular Flink connector
> options. It is an internal property from the {{HiveCatalog}} through a custom
> {{HiveCatalogTable}} to a custom {{HiveFactory}}. It should be stored as a
> member variable in a {{HiveCatalogTable}}.
