> There are some missing feature in the Hive API. Especially in 2.x, but even in 3.x which prevented us to provide alter table support for Hive tables in Iceberg code. > > That said there is an implementation in the Hive master which allows some of the `ALTER` functionality. https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/iceberg/iceberg-handler/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/mr/hive/HiveIcebergMetaHook.java#L96-L99 > > ``` > static final EnumSet<AlterTableType> SUPPORTED_ALTER_OPS = EnumSet.of( > AlterTableType.ADDCOLS, AlterTableType.REPLACE_COLUMNS, AlterTableType.RENAME_COLUMN, > AlterTableType.ADDPROPS, AlterTableType.DROPPROPS, AlterTableType.SETPARTITIONSPEC, > AlterTableType.UPDATE_COLUMNS); > ``` Thanks a lot.

Do you know that the community will be improved in this regard in the future? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
