Carl Steinbach updated HIVE-3474:
---------------------------------
Component/s: Thrift API
Metastore
> get_partitions_ps is HORRIBLY broken
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-3474
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3474
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Metastore, Thrift API
> Reporter: Jonathan Chang
>
> 1.) This function assumes that partial spec is in order of the partition
> columns but it does no checking of this whatsoever. In fact, it throws away
> everything before the =.
> 2.) The regular expression constructed is incorrect because it lacks a
> trailing '/'. This means that asking for 'ds=2' will return
> 'ds=2009-01-01/foo=bar'.
> 3.) There are multiple implementations of makePartName(). At the very least
> a code cleanup pass should happen. There is a potentially subtle problem
> with the one in Warehouse that takes a Map as input since it may not preserve
> the partition order (which is critical since it is just doing regexp
> checking).
