Description

HiveDriver.java

  public HiveDriver() {
    // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
    SecurityManager security = System.getSecurityManager();
    if (security != null) {
      security.checkWrite("foobah");
    }
  }

Not sure why it needs to write a file called "foobah" but I checked out some other JDBC drivers and they do nothing like this. Remove this check; remove the constructor.
