Sushanth Sowmyan commented on HIVE-5051:
----------------------------------------
(Also, I realize I was unclear when I initially said wrapper - I meant wrapper
function, not wrapper exception. The latter is definitely needed.)
> StorageBasedAuthorizationProvider masks lower level exception with
> IllegalStateException

> org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.security.authorization.StorageBasedAuthorizationProvider
> has the following 2 methods
> private HiveException hiveException(Exception e) {
> HiveException ex = new HiveException(e);
> ex.initCause(e);
> return ex;
> }
> private AuthorizationException authorizationException(Exception e) {
> AuthorizationException ex = new AuthorizationException(e);
> ex.initCause(e);
> return ex;
> }
> both, when called, will cause
> throw new IllegalStateException("Can't overwrite cause"); to be thrown and
> the original Exception is lost.
