             Summary: ResultSetMetaData.getColumnName() returns compound 
"table_name.column_name"
                 Key: HIVE-11626
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-11626
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JDBC
            Reporter: Roger Bjarevall
            Priority: Minor


The HIVE 1.2.1 driver returns a compound table_name.column_name when calling 
ResultSetMetaData.getColumnName(). As the method name implies it should return 
the column name only. There is a designated getTableName() for the purpose of 
returning the table name. With these two properly implemented (getTableName() 
doesn't work either as it currently returns null) the caller have the option to 
create a compound name if needed.

We're currently evaluating better support for HIVE in DbVisualizer. Without 
proper return of the column name only we will need to split the returned string 
which is bad workaround. One potential problem with parsing the current string 
is that a user may decide to put an embedded dot in the column name (having 
delimited identifiers on the DB enabled).
