GRANT/REVOKE should handle privileges as tokens, not identifiers
----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-1928
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1928
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Query Processor, Security
Affects Versions: 0.7.0
Reporter: Carl Steinbach
Priority: Blocker
The grammar for the GRANT and REVOKE Privileges statements currently handle the
list of privileges as a list of
identifiers. Since most of the privileges are also keywords in the HQL grammar
this requires users
to individually quote-escape each of the privileges, e.g:
{code}
grant `Create` on table authorization_part to user hive_test_user;
grant `Update` on table authorization_part to user hive_test_user;
grant `Drop` on table authorization_part to user hive_test_user;
grant `select` on table src to user hive_test_user;
{code}
Both MySQL and the SQL standard treat privileges as tokens. Hive should do the
same.
