Kunal Khamar created SPARK-19540: ------------------------------------ Summary: Add ability to clone SparkSession wherein cloned session has a reference to SharedState and an identical copy of the SessionState Key: SPARK-19540 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-19540 Project: Spark Issue Type: Story Components: SQL Affects Versions: 2.1.1 Reporter: Kunal Khamar
Forking a newSession() from SparkSession currently makes a new SparkSession that does not retain SessionState (i.e. temporary tables, SQL config, registered functions etc.) This change adds a method cloneSession() which creates a new SparkSession with a copy of the parent's SessionState. Subsequent changes to base session are not propagated to cloned session, clone is independent after creation. If the base is changed after clone has been created, say user registers new UDF, then the new UDF will not be available inside the clone. Same goes for configs and temp tables. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
