Hi [~laurikoobas].
I think all of the results is correct.
About the following two expressions,
{code:java}
from_json('{"msg":"\\"}', schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\'))))
from_json('{"msg":"\\"}', 'msg string')
{code}
{"msg": "\\"}
is just a string literal.
So, if you need to give a json formed string which contains escaped characters
like,
{"msg": "\\"}
you should write
{"msg": "\\\\"}
In this case, those expression should be:
{code:java}
from_json('{"msg":"\\\\"}', schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\'))))
from_json('{"msg":"\\\\"}', 'msg string')
{code}
About thefollowing expression,
{code:java}
from_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\')),
schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\'))))
{code}
The evaluated result is
{"msg":"\"}
in my Spark 3.1.1 environment. It seems to be different from
{"msg":"\\"}
you get but it should be
{"msg": "\"}

Hi [~laurikoobas].

from_json('{"msg":"\\"}', 'msg string')

'\{"msg": "\\"}' is just a string literal and "\\" is regarded as "\".
So, if you need to give an escaped character like "\\", you should write
"\\\\".
In this case, those expression should be:
{code:java}
from_json('{"msg":"\\\\"}', schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\'))))

About thefollowing expression,

from_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\')),
schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\'))))
{code}
The evaluated result is \{"msg":"\"} in my Spark 3.1.1 environment. It seems to
be different from the result you get (\{"msg":"\\"}) but it should be \{"msg":
"\"}.

> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 3.1.1
> Environment: Databricks DBR 8.1
> Reporter: Lauri Koobas
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: image-2021-04-11-07-21-02-750.png

>
> JSON string with the value that contains backslashes fails to be recovered by
> `from_json()`.
> I found that if the same string is created with `to_json(named_struct())`
> then it actually does work.
>
> The following code to reproduce. I would expect all of these methods to
> return the same (correct) result:
> {code:java}
> select to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\'))
> , schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\')))
> , from_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\')),
> schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\'))))
> , from_json('{"msg":"\\"}', schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg',
> '\\'))))
> , from_json('{"msg":"\\"}', 'msg string')
>
> {code}
