[jira] [Created] (SPARK-18595) Handling ignoreIfExists in HiveExternalCatalog createTable API

Xiao Li created SPARK-18595:
-------------------------------

             Summary: Handling ignoreIfExists in HiveExternalCatalog createTable API
                 Key: SPARK-18595
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18595
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 2.0.2
            Reporter: Xiao Li


Currently, `HiveExternalCatalog`'s `createTable` issues the exception if `ignoreIfExists` is true and the table exists. However, this is just a partial handling of `ignoreIfExists`. We can cover the other cases too. 

Instead of passing `ignoreIfExists` of CREATE TABLE to Hive metastore, we can handle it in `HiveExternalCatalog`'s `createTable`.
