[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-6013) Supporting Quoted Identifiers in Column Names

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6013?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14483450#comment-14483450 ]

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

GitHub user Jeffrio opened a pull request:

    https://github.com/apache/hive/pull/31

    Update HiveDatabaseMetaData.java change the identifierQuoteString

    according to this jira https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6013
    hive use the backstick as the quotestring
    so, I think the getIdentifierQuoteString() function should return the backstick rather than the space

> Hive's current behavior on Quoted Identifiers is different from the normal interpretation. Quoted Identifier (using backticks) has a special interpretation for Select expressions(as Regular Expressions). Have documented current behavior and proposed a solution in attached doc.
> Summary of solution is:
> - Introduce 'standard' quoted identifiers for columns only. 
> - At the langauage level this is turned on by a flag.
> - At the metadata level we relax the constraint on column names.
