Charles Chen updated HIVE-1218:
-------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
CREATE TABLE t LIKE some_view should create a new empty base table, but instead creates a copy of view
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-1218
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1218
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Metastore
Affects Versions: 0.5.0
Reporter: John Sichi
Assignee: Charles Chen
Attachments: HIVE-1218v0.patch
I think it should copy only the column definitions from the view metadata. Currently it is copying the entire descriptor, resulting in a new view instead of a new base table.
