Ryan Blue commented on PARQUET-227:
-----------------------------------
Should we define a type annotation for unions? That way Avro, Thrift, and Hive
unions could be compatible. That would also be a good opportunity to
standardize behavior, so if a union has multiple non-null values we have
predictable behavior for interpreting the data across object models. Obviously,
this wouldn't block your work here.
> Parquet thrift can write unions that have 0 or more than 1 set value

> Having 0 or more than 1 set values means the data will be unreadable in the
> read path, this should not be allowed in the write path.
