Alessandro Solimando updated HIVE-26733: ---------------------------------------- Summary: Not safe to use '=' for predicates on constant expressions that might be NULL (was: HiveRelMdPredicates::getPredicate(Project) should return IS_NULL for CAST(NULL)) > Not safe to use '=' for predicates on constant expressions that might be NULL > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-26733 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-26733 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: CBO > Affects Versions: 4.0.0-alpha-1 > Reporter: Alessandro Solimando > Assignee: Alessandro Solimando > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > Time Spent: 50m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > Given a _CAST(NULL as $type)_ as i-th project expression, the method returns > _(=($i, CAST(null:NULL):$type)_ instead of _IS_NULL($i)_ as in the case of a > _NULL_ literal project expression. > This is because _RexLiteral::isNullLiteral_ is used > [here|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/a6c0229f910972e84ba558e728532ffc245cc10d/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/optimizer/calcite/stats/HiveRelMdPredicates.java#L153], > while in similar cases, it's often convenient to use > {_}RexUtil::isNullLiteral(RexNode, boolean allowCast){_}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
