Mihai Budiu commented on CALCITE-7528:
--------------------------------------
In our compiler we do not allow nullable keys for maps.
This is tricky, because you cannot specify nullability for types in a generic
type
MAP<INT NOT NULL, INT>
So we have a heuristic to interpret types in such positions as not-nullable.
> Reject NULL keys in MAP

> Key: CALCITE-7528
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-7528
> Project: Calcite
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 1.41.0
> Reporter: Zhen Chen
> Priority: Major
>
> Calcite currently allows {{NULL}} to be used as a key in {{MAP}} literals,
> but this behavior is inconsistent with major database systems and query
> engines, which uniformly reject {{NULL}} as a map key.
> This leads to portability issues and semantic ambiguity in SQL compatibility
> mode.
> h3. pected Behavior (based on mainstream engines)
> {code:java}
> # clickhouse
> SELECT map('a', 1, NULL, 2);
> Error: Map cannot have a key of type Nullable(String): In scope SELECT
> map('a', 1, NULL, 2).# duckdb
> SELECT MAP{'a': 1, NULL: 2};
> Invalid Input Error:
> Map keys can not be NULL.# datafusion
> SELECT MAP{'a': 1, NULL: 2};
> Execution error: map key cannot be null# spark
> SELECT map('a', 1, NULL, 2);
> [NULL_MAP_KEY] Cannot use null as map key. SQLSTATE: 2200E
> org.apache.spark.SparkRuntimeException: [NULL_MAP_KEY] Cannot use null as map
> key. SQLSTATE: 2200E {code}
