David Lavati commented on HIVE-21630:
-------------------------------------
Thanks [~alangates], I discovered it and utilized it while I was working on the
original issue HIVE-21198.
I turned that into a subtask of this umbrella, as introducing all the possible
changes in 1 ticket would be too much: There are some non-trivial state changes
around a couple of places, where doing the right thing in 1 commit would be too
convoluted.
> Refactor database object reference access
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-21630
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-21630
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: David Lavati
> Assignee: David Lavati
> Priority: Major
> Labels: refactor
>
> There are many places in which "
> {databasename}
> .
> {tablename}
> " is passed as a single string; there are some places where the they travel
> as 2 separate arguments or as a {{String[]}}.
> Idea would be to introduce a simple immutable class with 2 fields ; and pass
> these informations together. Making this better is required if we would want
> to enable dot in tablenames: HIVE-16907, HIVE-21151
> The refactor requires large rework especially in the ql module: this ticket
> serves as an umbrella for these steps.
