Sunitha Kambhampati commented on SPARK-21823:
---------------------------------------------
This issue is as part of the new Informational RI support related changes that
will be required to the 2 existing DDLs as mentioned in the description. This
is dependent on SPARK-21784 which adds the initial ddl support to add RI
constraints. It was waiting on review from community.
> ALTER TABLE table statements such as RENAME and CHANGE columns should raise
> error if there are any dependent constraints.

> Key: SPARK-21823
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-21823
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Suresh Thalamati
> Priority: Major
>
> Following ALTER TABLE DDL statements will impact the informational
> constraints defined on a table:
> {code:sql}
> ALTER TABLE name RENAME TO new_name
> ALTER TABLE name CHANGE column_name new_name new_type
> {code}
> Spark SQL should raise errors if there are
informational constraints
> defined on the columns affected by the ALTER and let the user drop
> constraints before proceeding with the DDL. In the future we can enhance the
> ALTER to automatically fix up the constraint definition in the catalog when
> possible, and not raise error
> When spark adds support for DROP/REPLACE of columns they will impact
> informational constraints.
> {code:sql}
> ALTER TABLE name DROP [COLUMN] column_name
> ALTER TABLE name REPLACE COLUMNS (col_spec[, col_spec ...])
> {code}
