[jira] [Created] (HIVE-2136) Add get_version() call to Thrift API

Add get_version() call to Thrift API
------------------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-2136
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2136
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Thrift API
            Reporter: Carl Steinbach


Clients need to be able to determine the version of the HiveServer and HiveMetastore.

Open questions:
* Should there be separate methods for determining the HiveServer and HiveMetaStore versions?
* Should the return value be a string, or should we have separate integer valued methods that return the major/minor/patch versions separately (the latter would be easier for clients written in C).

--------------------------------------

We may also want to consider wrapping this in some kind of generic mechanism similar to ODBC's SQLGetInfo call.
