Description

When running beeline

% beeline -u 'jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000' -n hive -p passwd -d org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver
Connecting to jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000
Connected to: Hive (version 0.10.0)
Driver: Hive (version 0.11.0)
Transaction isolation: TRANSACTION_REPEATABLE_READ

The Hive version in the "Connected to: " string says 0.10.0 instead of 0.11.0.

Looking at the code it seems that the version is hardcoded at two places:
line 250 in jdbc/src/java/org/apache/hive/jdbc/HiveDatabaseMetaData.java
line 833 in jdbc/src/test/org/apache/hive/jdbc/TestJdbcDriver2.java
