That's correct, HCatClient doesn't provide that feature at this time.
It would be easy enough to add if you want to provide a patch for it.

Hello all,
The product I work on using the HCatalog api (particularly
HCatClient) to interact with Hive. It provides virtually everything we
need, with the exception of the ability to truncate a table. I'm able
to do it via the CLI by simply issuing the "TRUNCATE TABLE" command,
but HCatalog provides nothing.
Do I have this right? Will I need to create a jdbc connection to
issue a truncate statement?
Thanks,
Nathan Bamford
