Kathiresan Selvaraj commented on PHOENIX-777:
---------------------------------------------
Thanks Dumindu. Should we have a sub task or a new JIRA created for handling
this discrepancy (between SQL and java client) as well? Or will it be covered
as part of the Tests that will be done for this JIRA?
> Support null value for fixed length ARRAY
> -----------------------------------------

> Key: PHOENIX-777
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-777
> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: James Taylor
> Assignee: Dumindu Buddhika

> 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.
