Hi, There:
I was trying to compile trunk version of hive with cloudera cdh3b3 distribution and noticed that in
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql Driver.java was using:

org.apache.hadoop.security.UnixUserGroupInformation;

However, in the cdh3b3 version of hadoop, this class is gone, so Driver.java doesn't compile.

I checked 0.6 version of hive, the same issue exists.

I noticed that class org.apache.hadoop.security.UserGroupInformation is still there, both
in cdh3b2 and cdh3b3 version of hadoop. Can we change the Driver.java to use

org.apache.hadoop.security.UserGroupInformation;

instead ? This class does sound like a more generic class that in the future, we may
even get it to work under windows or other os.

Jimmy.
