Damian Momot created SPARK-18491: ------------------------------------ Summary: Spark uses mutable classes for date/time types mapping Key: SPARK-18491 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18491 Project: Spark Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Damian Momot
TimestampType is mapped to java.sql.Timestamp DateType is mapped to java.sql.Date Those both java types are mutable and thus their usage is highly discourage, especially in distributed computing which uses lazy, functional approach Mapping to immutable joda times should be enough for now (until scala 2.12 + jdk8 java.time is available for spark) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
