Ohad Raviv commented on SPARK-18861:
------------------------------------
I think it was a problem at v2.0.0.
it is better to resolve it as fixed at version 2.1
> Spark-SQL unconsistent behavior with "struct" expressions
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-18861
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18861
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Ohad Raviv
>
> We are getting strangly inconsistent behavior with expressions involving
> "struct". Let's start with this simple table:
> {quote}
> Seq((1, 2, 3), (2, 3, 4)).toDF("a", "b", "c").createOrReplaceTempView("t1")
> sql("desc t1").show()
> {quote}
> Then we get this DF:
> {quote}
> |col_name|data_type|comment|
> | a| int| |
> | b| int| |
> | c| int| |
> {quote}
> Now, although we can clearly see that all the fields are of type int, we we
> run:
> {quote}
> sql("SELECT case when a>b then struct(a,b) else struct(c,c) end from t1")
> {quote}
> we get this error:
> {quote}
> org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: cannot resolve 'CASE WHEN (t1.`a` >
> t1.`b`) THEN struct(t1.`a`, t1.`b`) ELSE struct(t1.`c`, t1.`c`) END' due to
> data type mismatch: THEN and ELSE expressions should all be same type or
> coercible to a common type; line 1 pos 7
> {quote}
> if we try this:
> {quote}
> sql("SELECT case when a>b then struct(cast(a as int), cast(b as int)) else
> struct(cast(c as int), cast(c as int)) end from t1")
> {quote}
> we get another exception:
> {quote}
> requirement failed: Unresolved attributes found when constructing
> LocalRelation.
> java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: requirement failed: Unresolved attributes
> found when constructing LocalRelation.
> at scala.Predef$.require(Predef.scala:224)
> at
> org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.plans.logical.LocalRelation.<init>(LocalRelation.scala:49)
> {quote}
> However, these do work:
> {quote}
> sql("SELECT case when a>b then struct(cast(a as double), cast(b as double))
> else struct(cast(c as double), cast(c as double)) end from t1")
> sql("SELECT case when a>b then struct(cast(a as string), cast(b as string))
> else struct(cast(c as string), cast(c as string)) end from t1")
> {quote}
> any ideas?
