I'm trying to modify a script to allow for more code reuse, by prepending table
names with a variable.
For example: CREATE TABLE etl_${hiveconf:table}_traffic AS ...
The problem I'm running into is that after building all of these etl_* tables,
I use a final query to join all of the tables and select all of the appropriate
columns. In this query, I reference the ${hiveconf:table} variable 122 times,
and end up receiving this error: "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Variable
substitution depth too large: 40". According to a quick Google search, it
appears that the limit of 40 is hardcoded into the VariableSubstitution class.
Is there any way to override this in a hiveconf variable?
Thanks
Matt Tucker
