Jesus Camacho Rodriguez commented on HIVE-22956: ------------------------------------------------ [~mgergely], could you check the patch in HIVE-22566 ? It seems to tackle same problem. 1) Yes, it is as you describe it above, views are not an issue. 2) I think it is OK (and even recommended) to state clearly the fully qualified name of the MVs that are preventing dropping the table in the error message. > Fix checking if a table is used by a materialized view before dropping > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-22956 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-22956 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Hive > Reporter: Miklos Gergely > Assignee: Miklos Gergely > Priority: Major > Fix For: 4.0.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-22956.01.patch, HIVE-22956.02.patch > > > Currently when a table is dropped we are deriving if it was used by any > materialized views from the error message got from the Metastore.
