Ryan Blue commented on PARQUET-251:
-----------------------------------
[~jnadeau], does that include the fix to ignore min/max byte arrays for data
written with 1.6.0 and earlier?
> Binary column statistics error when reuse byte[] among rows
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PARQUET-251
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-251
> Project: Parquet
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: parquet-mr
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0
> Reporter: Yijie Shen
> Priority: Blocker
>
> I think it is a common practice when inserting table data as parquet file,
> one would always reuse the same object among rows, and if a column is byte[]
> of fixed length, the byte[] would also be reused.
> If I use ByteArrayBackedBinary for my byte[], the bug occurs: All of the row
> groups created by a single task would have the same max & min binary value,
> just as the last row's binary content.
> The reason is BinaryStatistic just keep max & min as parquet.io.api.Binary
> references, since I use ByteArrayBackedBinary for byte[], the real content of
> max & min would always point to the reused byte[], therefore the latest row's
> content.
> Does parquet declare somewhere that the user shouldn't reuse byte[] for
> Binary type? If it doesn't, I think it's a bug and can be reproduced by
> [Spark SQL's RowWriteSupport
> |https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/parquet/ParquetTableSupport.scala#L353-354]
