Russell Alexander Spitzer commented on SPARK-10104: --------------------------------------------------- Previously with Seq[String] it was possible to extend the data within a TableIdentifier. This was used to allow the specification of a "Cluster", "Database" and Table. This made it possible for us segregate identifiers based on what cluster they were being read from. Currently we are trying to determine a workaround to store extra information in the TableIdentifier.

We should only have one form and looks > TableIdentifier is the best one because it provides methods to get table > name, database name, return unquoted string, and return quoted string. > There will be TODOs having "SPARK-10104" in it. Those places need to be > updated. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
