Fabian Tan created HIVE-13081: --------------------------------- Summary: Support for DELETE/UPDATE... JOIN Key: HIVE-13081 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13081 Project: Hive Issue Type: New Feature Reporter: Fabian Tan Priority: Minor
I noticed that DELETE.. join does not appear to work with Hive 1.x. For an example: hive> delete from t_bic_pel_order_acid LEFT OUTER JOIN t_bic_pel_order_poc7 ON (t_bic_pel_order_acid.order_no=t_bic_pel_order_poc7.order_no); FAILED: ParseException line 1:33 missing EOF at 'LEFT' near 't_bic_pel_order_acid' Looking at Hive's documentation, it does look like the DELETE syntax supported is only limited to DELETE from ..<where>, where there are no indicators that joins are supported. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DML#Languag... I could not find any JIRA ticket or examples of other end users using this, therefore, I'm creating this ticket as a feature request to support DELETE/UPDATE ..
