Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-19741: --------------------------------------- The keyword APPLICATION was added by HIVE-18004 in release 3.0.0. It's a reserved word (since IdentifiersParser.g doesn't list it as nonreserved). > Update documentation to reflect list of reserved words > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-19741 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-19741 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Documentation > Reporter: Matt Burgess > Priority: Minor > > The current list of non-reserved and reserved keywords is on the Hive wiki: > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-Keywords,Non-reservedKeywordsandReservedKeywords > However it does not match the list in code (see the lexer rules here): > https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/parse/HiveLexer.g > On particular example is the "application" keyword, which was discovered > while trying to create a table with a column named "application". > This Jira proposes to align the documentation with the current set of > non-reserved and reserved keywords. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
