调研方向

The issue describes changes across Table, FileStoreTable, FormatTable, SystemTable, RestCatalog::GetTable, and the table scan/read paths, but names no source files or tests. Start by locating those definitions and the existing table hierarchy, then read the open pull request #447 to understand the work already underway. Done means the hierarchy and file system behavior match the described solution and the affected tests pass.

Motivation

A single Table class dispatched everything: the differences between managed, format, and system tables lived in if branches inside one 1400-line table.cpp, every operator call (NewScan/NewRead/NewWrite/NewCommit) re-merged a fresh options map and re-parsed CoreOptions — the state Java Paimon's AbstractFileStore parses exactly once — and the file system a table is served by was resolved before the schema's access configuration was even known.

The ambiguity produced real defects:

  • RestCatalog::GetTable(Identifier("sys", "tables")) returned the read-only schema of a global system table but still passed it to the managed-table load, which statically cast it to TableSchema and called PrimaryKeys() on it — undefined behavior.
  • The operator factory path built the file system from the context options alone; a schema carrying remote backend and credentials (delivered through SetTableSchema()) was therefore served by the default local backend, and reading its data failed.
  • The $ro and $audit_log views built their underlying scans and reads from the context's file system, ignoring the one their table was opened with; a context that also carried a file-system scheme map was then refused outright (WithFileSystem() and WithFileSystemSchemeToIdentifierMap() cannot be used together).
  • FileStoreTable::Copy half-applied a branch option: it was written into the copy's schema options but never moved the copy's branch, so the consistency check reported the branch actually served as a conflict and let a mismatched one through.
  • An option conflict between a context and a held table was reported with both raw values in the error message, leaking credentials into logs.
  • With REST data tokens enabled, the system tables a GetTable() call returned were bound to the catalog-wide file system, so $snapshots and friends read the data table's files without the table-level credentials and failed.

Solution

  • Split the hierarchy: Table becomes an abstract base (NewXxx pure virtual, a new virtual Copy(dynamic_options)), implemented by FileStoreTable — with AppendOnlyFileStoreTable/PrimaryKeyFileStoreTable subclasses — by FormatTable (which now derives from Table and owns its own assembly, absorbing format_table_loader), and by the SystemTable family.
  • Introduce a FileStore (the counterpart of Java's AbstractFileStore) that materializes CoreOptions once at construction, resolves the served file system after the options are known (schema-carried access configuration names its own backend; the caller's explicit file system wins over it), carries the file-system scheme map, and hosts the operator factories (NewPathFactory, NewSnapshotManager, NewManifestList, ...). FileStoreTable holds its schema/snapshot managers and its branch; SwitchToBranch derives a table of another branch.
  • Give context options one clear place to speak: the load. A factory-path load (TableScan::Create(ctx) etc.) merges the context options over the schema's through Table::Copy() — a table is the product of its load — while NewXxx on a held table refuses a contradicting option (option 'X' is 'A' in the context but 'B' on the table, values redacted). Copy never half-applies type or branch; managers are handed over unless a file-system option among the copy's changes the resolution, in which case fresh ones are built.
  • Fix the surrounding defects: RestCatalog::GetTable serves sys-database global system tables locally and binds per-table system tables to GetTableFileSystem(); $ro/$audit_log/$binlog prefer the context's file system and fall back to the table's only when the context names neither a file system nor a scheme map; the scan-fallback read context merges the load's dynamic options so the fallback reader recognises what the main one does.

Anything else?

  • Options a schema carries that do not parse now fail at table-build time rather than at the first operator; a table opened with neither a schema-carried backend nor a caller file system is served by the default local one instead of holding a null one.
  • No storage format or protocol change. Public API changes: Table is abstract (constructor protected, Name/FullName/NewXxx/Copy virtual, Table::CurrentBranch() replaced by FileStoreTable::CurrentBranch()), FormatTable derives from Table (static FormatTable::Copy(table, options) becomes the virtual Table::Copy(options), GetLocation() becomes GetRootPath()), and FileStoreTable::SwitchToBranch is new.
