[jira] [Updated] (HIVE-11208) Can not drop a default partition __HIVE_DEFAULT_PARTITION__ which is not a "string" type

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

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-11208?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Aihua Xu updated HIVE-11208:
----------------------------

Actually that change would be fine. Here is the thought on the implementation: default partition is a special value although internally we use a string to represent it. We can reserve default keyword for it. It will only support x = default or x != default. Other comparisons actually should error out during  earlier compilation time. Hope that makes sense to you.

> SemanticException Unexpected unknown partitions
> Reproduce:
