[jira] Created: (HIVE-1558) introducing the "dual" table

introducing the "dual" table
----------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-1558
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1558
             Project: Hadoop Hive
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Ning Zhang


The "dual" table in MySQL and Oracle is very convenient in testing UDFs or constructing rows without reading any other tables. 

If dual is the only data source we could leverage the local mode execution.

[jira] Commented: (HIVE-1558) introducing the "dual" table

John Sichi commented on HIVE-1558:
----------------------------------

SQL standard has the VALUES clause, so you can do

INSERT INTO t VALUES(3, 'hi');  -- inserts one row

INSERT INTO t VALUES (3, 'hi'), (4, 'bye');  -- inserts two rows

and

SELECT * FROM (VALUES(3, 'hi'), (4, 'bye'))  -- inline table results

If we add dual, it would also be nice to support at least the standard INSERT syntax since that has been around forever.
