Class TableIterable

java.lang.Object

org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.TableIterable

All Implemented Interfaces:

Iterable<Table>

public class TableIterable
extends Object
implements Iterable<Table>

Use this to get Table objects for a table list. It provides an iterator to on the resulting Table objects. It batches the calls to IMetaStoreClient.getTableObjectsByName to avoid OOM issues in HS2 (with embedded metastore) or MetaStore server (if HS2 is using remote metastore).
