Carl Steinbach commented on HIVE-3278: -------------------------------------- The 'M' prefix is is already spoken for. We use it as the prefix for the Modeled objects that Datanucleus persists to the metastore, e.g. o.a.h.hive.metastore.model.MTable. I suppose we could prefix the stuff in ql.metadata with an 'H', but before we do that I'd first like to move that code over to the metastore package and do some other cleanup work. Also, we should eventually wrap the HiveMetaStoreClient library with an improved version that uses the H* types instead of the raw Thrift types. > Create wrappers around Thrift Metastore objects for improved readability > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-3278 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3278 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Metastore > Reporter: Carl Steinbach > Assignee: Carl Steinbach > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
