Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-14048:
-----------------------------------------

Those fields are not of public api, there is no contract that we need to deprecate them before removing them.  Dependencies which are using non-public apis need to update their source if they rely on non-public apis.

> The patch for HIVE-4570 removes protected fields like initialized, isDone, started etc and created a TaskState enum to represent these variables. Since these fields which were removed were marked protected, class which can extend Task.java (or DDLTask.java) will fail to compile once they get this patch.
> The protected fields should probably be marked deprecated instead of removing them directly since it could break outside dependencies.
