Grzegorz Kołakowski commented on FLINK-27641: --------------------------------------------- For missing *PROCTIME* attribute we can easily do a workaround ("from (select *, proctime() as `proctime` ...)" subquery). The real problem is missing *ROWTIME* attribute which prevents from running all SQL constructs that rely on watermarking. > Create view lost Time attribute in Hive Catalog > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-27641 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-27641 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Connectors / Hive > Affects Versions: 1.12.3, 1.14.4 > Reporter: Robert Wu > Priority: Minor > > Create table in hive catalog with the following sql state. : > > {code:java} > CREATE TABLE user_score( > username varchar, > score varchar, > proctime AS PROCTIME() > ) with ( > 'connector'='datagen', > 'rows-per-second'='2', > 'fields.score.length'='2', > 'fields.username.length'='2' > );{code} > > We can get the description: > > {code:java} > DESCRIBE user_score; > +----------+-----------------------------+-------+-----+---------------+-----------+ > | name | type | null | key | extras | > watermark | > +----------+-----------------------------+-------+-----+---------------+-----------+ > | username | STRING | true | | | > | > | score | STRING | true | | | > | > | proctime | TIMESTAMP_LTZ(3) *PROCTIME* | false | | AS PROCTIME() | > | > +----------+-----------------------------+-------+-----+---------------+-----------+ > {code} > > > However,view create in hive catalog will lost Time attribute in the proctime > field: > > {code:java} > create view view_score_hive_catalog as select * from user_score;{code} > > {code:java} > DESCRIBE view_score_hive_catalog; > > +----------+------------------+-------+-----+--------+-----------+ > | name | type | null | key | extras | watermark | > +----------+------------------+-------+-----+--------+-----------+ > | username | STRING | true | | | | > | score | STRING | true | | | | > | proctime | TIMESTAMP_LTZ(3) | false | | | | > +----------+------------------+-------+-----+--------+-----------+ > {code} > > > Otherwise,when we excute the same state. in default catalog, things are going > to change: > {code:java} > Create view view_score_mem_catalog as select * from > myhive.[hive_database].user_score;{code} > > {code:java} > DESCRIBE view_score_mem_catalog; > +----------+-----------------------------+-------+-----+--------+-----------+ > | name | type | null | key | extras | watermark | > +----------+-----------------------------+-------+-----+--------+-----------+ > | username | STRING | true | | | | > | score | STRING | true | | | | > | proctime | TIMESTAMP_LTZ(3) *PROCTIME* | false | | | | > +----------+-----------------------------+-------+-----+--------+-----------+ > {code} > > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
