Jesus Camacho Rodriguez commented on HIVE-14487:
------------------------------------------------
[~ekoifman], thanks for the feedback.
That is fair point and something I had not considered yet; we do not do
anything special in HIVE-14487, which would lead to inconsistent/incorrect
results if a user uses the materialized view while it is being rebuilt. I guess
raising an error should be enough. Then we would need to keep the state for the
materialized view in the metastore? Or do you have any other idea?
I can 1) create a follow-up for this, as HIVE-14487 has passed QA and is ready
to go in, 2) I can add the new logic to HIVE-14487, or 3) I can remove the
logic for REBUILD completely from HIVE-14487 and put it all together in a new
patch. I am inclined to go with 3. What is your take?
