Tim Armstrong resolved IMPALA-5637.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Do
> Hive will start parsing "EXTERNAL" tbl property as case insensitive
> -------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: IMPALA-5637
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-5637
> Project: IMPALA
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Frontend
> Affects Versions: Impala 2.10.0
> Reporter: Matthew Jacobs
> Priority: Minor
>
> Newer versions of Hive (3.0 and 2.4) will start handling the EXTERNAL table
> property in a case insensitive manner: HIVE-16324
> While Impala master currently is tested against Hive 1.1, we should check if
> there are any code paths that will break after this change, i.e. where Impala
> might assume that "EXTERNAL" is upper-case per the behavior of Hive before
> HIVE-16324, and make sure the code will work as expected.
