Brock Noland updated HIVE-5641:
-------------------------------

    Priority: Minor  (was: Major)

> BeeLineOpts ignores Throwable
> -----------------------------

>                 Key: HIVE-5641
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5641
>             Project: Hive
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Brock Noland
>            Priority: Minor
>
> BeelineOpts has the following code:
> {noformat}
>     } catch (Throwable t) {
>        return -1;
>      }
> {noformat}
> which is bad. I believe it is there because the code called maybe buggy and throw such things as ArrayIndex or NoSuchElement etc.
> I propose we:
> 1) catch exception, not throwable. Usage should remain the same without having a giant black hole
> 2) that we log the exception so we can figure out what is wrong with the underlying code
