[jira] Commented: (HBASE-652) dropping table fails silently if table isn't disabled

["stack (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-652?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12603288#action_12603288 ] 

stack commented on HBASE-652:
-----------------------------

Made a fix in branch.  HQL was going out of its way to parse the exception message dropping the actual exception type.  After HQL was done w/ its parse, all that was left was name of table.

{code}
durruti:~/Documents/checkouts/hbase/branches/0.1 stack$ ./bin/hbase shell
Hbase Shell, 0.0.2 version.

Type 'help;' for usage.

hql > create table 'x' ('x')
  --> ;
Creating table... Please wait.
Table created successfully.
hql > drop table 'x';
Dropping x... Please wait.
 You must first disable table <x> before you can drop it
hql > disable 'x';
08/06/06 22:25:03 INFO hbase.HBaseAdmin: Disabled table x
Table disabled successfully. (10.03 sec)
hql > drop table 'x';
Dropping x... Please wait.
08/06/06 22:25:06 INFO hbase.HBaseAdmin: table x deleted
1 table(s) dropped successfully. (0.03 sec)
{code}

Here is how it now works in branch.
