Description

Ambari Hive View is not displaying the table properties that one normally sees on the command line when issuing "describe formatted" and "show create table" queries.

It is only outputting the column list in the Result tab. I've noticed Hive View 2.0 does at least give a mechanism to explore table metadata via UI, not sure if this result parsing limitation still applies in that version.
