Sushanth Sowmyan commented on HIVE-9271: ---------------------------------------- Mostly looks good to me, and has my tentative +1. One minor thing : I wondered if fire_notification_event shouldn't return a long instead of a void, thus returning the notification id of the fired event - but that's a strict no-no from a perspective of what a MetaStoreEventListener is supposed to be, since a NotificationListener is only one type of listener. That got me thinking - should this method be called fire_event rather than fire_notification_event? > Add ability for client to request metastore to fire an event > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-9271 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9271 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Metastore > Reporter: Alan Gates > Assignee: Alan Gates > Fix For: 0.15.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-9271.patch > > > Currently all events in Hive are fired by the metastore. However, there are > events that only the client fully understands, such as DML operations.
