Yeah. I think this is useful, as long as it doesn't bring ambiguity. Original 
original proposal of table[0] notation is ambiguous, but the current table.$0 
is good. Also, we should make sure that Hive emits an error message in case $0 
cannot be uniquely identified such as in a join, similar to the case where a 
column's name cannot be uniquely identified.

Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-494:

Pig supports this, though using $1, $2 syntax, which is useful and convenient 
in some sense. However, I didn't find it's in standard SQL. One downside of 
supporting this is that ordering starts to matter now in the select list. If I 
do select a, b, c from T, the output is deterministic regardless T's schema 
(as long it has a, b, and c). On the other hand, if I do select $1, $2, $3 
from T and if later on the table's schema is changed as (a, b, d, c), then my 
query will return a different data set.

So, projecting by numbers is different from they just get translated into 
numbers anyway.

Adding columns is quite common in hadoop data. Of course, one can argue that 
columns should always add at the end, which doesn't happen that way always.

I think any user will realize that '$1' can change. In the end i think hive 
should be more dynamic somewhat like pig. Imagine something like this:

create table x stored by dynamichandler;

select $1 , $2 from x (inputformat=textinputformat, inpath=/x/y/z);

We are close to this now because Navis added the ability to specify per query 
table properties.

What is, or what is not in the SQL spec should not be our metric, we can 
already do amazing things that SQL can't so I want to keep innovating. As long 
as something does not produce an ambiguity in the language I see no harm in it.

The patch for this was made once and I expect it to be found somewhere in local

I think we should commit this. 
* it is impossible to name a column 1
* it is impossible to name a column alias 1

If order by supports this I do not see group by can't? Do we want to reconsider 
this?I kinda like the feature.

Carl Steinbach commented on HIVE-494:
-

bq. It seemed not a standard SQL and also could be confusional especially with 
join/unions.

I'm a little worried about this too, mainly because it appears to extend SQL 
syntax and (speaking personally) I don't think I fully understand the long term 
impact of a change like this. If it turns out that this syntax is broken, 
deprecating it is going to be painful for all of the people who start using it.

bq. Could it be worth to be implemented?

I think we should pass on this unless it turns out to be part of standard SQL, 
or we can point to some other DB like MySQL that already implements it. On a 
related note, HIVE-1947 covers implementing similar syntax for the ORDER BY 
clause, and it turns out that this *is* part of standard SQL. It's also 
interesting to note that ordinal column references in the WHERE clause aren't 
supported since it would result in ambiguous statements like this:

{noformat}
SELECT a, b from src
WHERE 1=1;
{noformat}

instead of name.

  Simple patch, but was very useful for me to implement query generator for 
random-forest.

 Key: HIVE-494
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-494
 Project: Hive
  Issue Type: Wish
  Components: Clients, Query Processor
Reporter: Adam Kramer
Priority: Minor
  Labels: SQL
 Attachments: HIVE-494.D1641.1.patch


 SELECT mytable[0], mytable[2] FROM some_table_name mytable;
 ...should return the first and third columns, respectively, from mytable 
 regardless of their column names.
 The need for names specifically is kind of silly when they just get 
 translated into numbers anyway.
