             Summary: registerTempTable is ignoring database clarifications
                 Key: SPARK-17831
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17831
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
         Environment: Linux
            Reporter: Saif Addin Ellafi
            Priority: Minor


So, I am writing a general spark api to use a Hive Metastore.

In case I want to work with temporary tables, I optionally request the client 
to provide a database ("default" if not provided).

The problem is, that if I register a temp table as "default.some_table", the 
table is going to be named exactly "default.some_table" and no such table 
exceptions arise when trying to access such tables from sqlContext.table() or 
sqlContext.isCache().

Workaround is to not provide default keyword but it is proving some unnecessary 
logic.

Any chance this could be fixed to allow storing temporary tables in some 
database? or ignore it at all when trying to access it?

Saif
