Jonathan Chang created HIVE-3474:
------------------------------------
Summary: get_partitions_ps is HORRIBLY broken
Key: HIVE-3474
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3474
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Jonathan Chang
1.) This function assumes that partial spec is in order of the partition
columns but it does no checking of this whatsoever. In fact, it throws away
everything before the =.
2.) The regular expression constructed is incorrect because it lacks a trailing
'/'. This means that asking for 'ds=2' will return 'ds=2009-01-01/foo=bar'.
3.) There are multiple implementations of makePartName(). At the very least a
code cleanup pass should happen. There is a potentially subtle problem with
the one in Warehouse that takes a Map as input since it may not preserve the
partition order (which is critical since it is just doing regexp checking).
