bq. The getTables jdbc function no longer returns information when using normal
JDBC table types like TABLE or VIEW.
It's not good that the behavior has changed between versions, nor that we're
pretty clearly violating the principle of least astonishment for no good
reason. At the same time it's unfair to say that the driver doesn't use "normal
JDBC table types" because JDBC doesn't define any "normal table types". This
also helps to explain why DatabaseMetaData.getTableTypes() exists.

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JDBC
> Affects Versions: 0.10.0
> Reporter: Johndee Burks
> Priority: Minor
>
> The getTables jdbc function no longer returns information when using normal
> JDBC table types like TABLE or VIEW. You must now use a more specific type
> such as MANAGED_TABLE or VIRTUAL_VIEW. An example application that will fail
> to return results against 0.10 is below, works without issue in 0.9. In my
> 0.10 test I used HS2.
