L. C. Hsieh commented on SPARK-29946: ------------------------------------- Ur, this is for Map type data serialization in JacksonGenerator, not MapType.toString. You can check how JacksonGenerator serializes map type data. > Special serialization for certain key types of Map type in JacksonGenerator > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-29946 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-29946 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: L.

For some types, like UnsafeRow, > the toString is not human readable. So currently the map key in JSON is not > very useful for some types. > We should do special serialization for certain key types of Map. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
