Alexander Behm created IMPALA-6305: -------------------------------------- Summary: Allow column definitions in ALTER VIEW Key: IMPALA-6305 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-6305 Project: IMPALA Issue Type: Improvement Components: Frontend Reporter: Alexander Behm
When working with views we currently only allow separate column definitions in CREATE VIEW but not in ALTER VIEW. Example: {code} create table t1 (c1 int, c2 int); create view v (x comment 'hello world', y) as select * from t1; describe v; +------+------+-------------+ | name | type | comment | +------+------+-------------+ | x | int | hello world | | y | int | | +------+------+-------------+ {code} Currently we cannot use ALTER VIEW to change the column definitions after the fact, i.e. the following should be supported: {code} alter view v (z1, z2 comment 'foo bar') as select * from t1; {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
