Namit Jain commented on HIVE-1763:
----------------------------------
However, it will need a lot of test result files to be updated.
Most of the tests will break
> drop table (or view) should issue warning if table doesn't exist

> drop table reports "OK" even if the table doesn't exist. Better to report
