---------------------------------------
By the way, what is your two different error of last example? For me, there is
no error message.
{code}
> sdfCar <- createDataFrame(mtcars)
> sdfCar1 <- withColumn(sdfCar, "isEfficient", sdfCar$mpg<=20)
> sdfCar1 <- withColumn(sdfCar1, "isEfficient", sdfCar1$mpg * 2.0 )
> summary(sdfCar1)
SparkDataFrame[summary:string, mpg:string, cyl:string, disp:string, hp:string,
drat:string, wt:string, qsec:string, vs:string, am:string, gear:string,
carb:string, isEfficient:string]

> withColumn() allows illegal creation of duplicate column names on DataFrame
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-16464
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-16464
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SparkR, SQL
> Affects Versions: 1.6.1
> Environment: Databricks.com
> Reporter: Neil Dewar
> Priority: Minor
>
> If I take an existing DataFrame, I am permitted to use withColumn() to create
> a duplicate column name. I assume this should be illegal, and withColumn
> should be prevented from permitting this. Some functions subsequently fail
> due to the duplicate column names. Example:
> sdfCar <- createDataFrame(sqlContext, mtcars)
> sdfCar1 <- withColumn(sdfCar, "isEfficient", sdfCar$mpg<=20)
> sdfCar1 <- withColumn(sdfCar1, "isEfficient", ifelse(sdfCar1$mpg ==
> sdfCar1$mpg,1,0))
> sdfCar2 <- subset(sdfCar1, select=sdfCar1$isEfficient)
> # subset() command fails with message: "Reference 'isEfficient' is ambiguous"
> Note: I only know if this is SparkR - it might affect other languages APIs.
