[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-2320) Implement setCatalog() and allow setting active database to a database other than "default"

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

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2320?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13076176#comment-13076176 ] 

Oren Lederman commented on HIVE-2320:
-------------------------------------

I considered two alternatives:
1. The one I used in the patch above - setting a local database variable in the constructor calling setCatalog() after calling configureConnection().
2. Setting a global database variable and calling setCatalog() from configureConnection()

> Currently, the JDBC driver always use "default" as the schema/database. We should allow setting the active schema to another schema.
> 1. implement the setCatalog() method
> 2. modify HiveConnection constructor to take the schema from the URL and call setCatalog
> 3. change configureConnection() and execute "use <schema>;" statement 
> See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-675
