Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-38939:
------------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Apache Spark)
> Support ALTER TABLE ... DROP [IF EXISTS] COLUMN .. syntax
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-38939
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-38939
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0, 3.2.1, 3.3.0
> Reporter: Jackie Zhang
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently `ALTER TABLE ... DROP COLUMN(s) ...` syntax will always throw error
> if the column doesn't exist. We would like to provide an (IF EXISTS) syntax
> to provide better user experience for downstream handlers (such as Delta)
> that support it, and make consistent with some other DMLs such as `DROP TABLE
> (IF EXISTS)`
