Assignee: Dumindu Buddhika (was: ramkrishna)
> Support null value for fixed length ARRAY
> -----------------------------------------

> Key: PHOENIX-777

> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: James Taylor

>
> A null value for a fixed length array can be handled with a bitset tacked on
> the end of the array. If an element is set to null, then the bit at that
> index is set. Trailing nulls are not stored and an attempt to access an array
> past the current size returns null.
> Current behavior,
> PBinaryArray - Throws an exception when a null is inserted.
> PBooleanArray - null is considered as false when a null is inserted.
> PCharArray - Throws an exception when a null is inserted.
> PDateArray - Throws an exception when a null is inserted.
> PDoubleArray - null is considered as 0.0 when a null is inserted.
> PFloatArray - null is considered as 0.0 when a null is inserted.
> PIntegerArray - null is considered as 0 when a null is inserted.
> PLongArray - null is considered as 0 when a null is inserted.
> PSmallIntArray - null is considered as 0 when a null is inserted.
> PTimeArray - Throws an exception when a null is inserted.
> PTimeStampArray - Throws an exception when a null is inserted.
> PTinyIntArray - null is considered as 0 when a null is inserted.
