Phabricator updated HIVE-2795:
------------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-2795.D1683.1.patch
kevinwilfong requested code review of "HIVE-2795 [jira] View partitions do not
have a storage descriptor".
Reviewers: JIRA
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2795
Updated the metastore so that if a partition is added to a view and the
partition's StorageDescriptor is null it will use a copy of the table's
StorageDescriptor.
Besides being an inconsistency, it causes errors.
Calling describe formatted on a view partition throws an exception
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.metadata.Partition.getCols(Partition.java:505)
at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask.describeTable(DDLTask.java:2570)
because it does not have a column descriptor, which is part of the storage
descriptor.
