[jira] [Comment Edited] (SPARK-8105) sqlContext.table("databaseName.tableName") broke with SPARK-6908

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8105?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14639083#comment-14639083 ]

[~yhuai], what's the plan for this? SPARK-8107 seems to suggest adding a new function to SqlContext {{table("dbName", "tblName")}}, but the patch isn't committed while the jira is closed.

Why can't we simply support HiveContext {{table("dbName.tblName")}} since it is backward compatible I believe? Any concern with this approach?

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8105
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Sub-task
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
>         Environment: Spark with Hive
>            Reporter: Doug Balog
>            Priority: Critical
>
> Since the introduction of Dataframes in Spark 1.3.0 and prior to SPARK-6908 landing into master, a user could get a DataFrame to a Hive table using `sqlContext.table("databaseName.tableName")` 
> Since SPARK-6908, the user now receives a NoSuchTableException.
> This amounts to a change in  non experimental sqlContext.table() api and will require user code to be modified to work properly with 1.4.0.
> The only viable work around I could find is
> `sqlContext.sql("select * from databseName.tableName")`
> which seems like a hack.
