[jira] [Created] (HIVE-13031) List object type with database object

Todd Wilson created HIVE-13031:
----------------------------------

             Summary: List object type with database object
                 Key: HIVE-13031
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13031
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ODBC
            Reporter: Todd Wilson


SHOW TABLES IN <DATABASE> will currently list tables and views.  It would be helpful to also have the table type or object type returned with the list of object names so that a DESCRIBE command doesn't need to be run on each object.  Our application uses object type quite frequently and to be able to pull this information at one time during a SHOW TABLE EXTENDED for example would be preferred over having to run DESCRIBE for each object in the database.  We're using the Hive ODBC driver to connect.  Thanks.
