Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-19741:
---------------------------------------
The keyword APPLICATION was added by HIVE-18004 in release 3.0.0. It's a
reserved word (since IdentifiersParser.g doesn't list it as nonreserved).
> Update documentation to reflect list of reserved words
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-19741
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-19741
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Matt Burgess
> Priority: Minor
>
> The current list of non-reserved and reserved keywords is on the Hive wiki:
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-Keywords,Non-reservedKeywordsandReservedKeywords
> However it does not match the list in code (see the lexer rules here):
> https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/parse/HiveLexer.g
> On particular example is the "application" keyword, which was discovered
> while trying to create a table with a column named "application".
> This Jira proposes to align the documentation with the current set of
> non-reserved and reserved keywords.
