Zhihua Deng commented on HIVE-22458: ------------------------------------ A patch for branch-1 has been submited. As when partitions ordered by values.get(i), a npe will throw on datanucleus version 3. So the getJdoResult method in ObjectStore will not implement until datanucleus upgrades to version 4. > Add more constraints on showing partitions > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-22458 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-22458 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Zhihua Deng > Priority: Major > Attachments: HIVE-22458.2.branch-1.patch, HIVE-22458.branch-1.patch > > > When we showing partitions of a table with thousands of partitions, all the > partitions will be returned and it's not easy to catch the specified one from > them, this make showing partitions hard to use.
