Sean Owen updated SPARK-5918: ----------------------------- Component/s: SQL > Spark Thrift server reports metadata for VARCHAR column as STRING in result > set schema > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-5918 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5918 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 1.1.1, 1.2.0 > Reporter: Holman Lan > > This is reproducible using the open source JDBC driver by executing a query > that will return a VARCHAR column then retrieving the result set metadata. > The type name returned by the JDBC driver is VARCHAR which is expected but > reports the column type as string[12] and precision/column length as > 2147483647 (which is what the JDBC driver would return for STRING column) > even though we created a VARCHAR column with max length of 1000. > Further investigation indicates the GetResultSetMetadata Thrift client API > call returns the incorrect metadata. > We have confirmed this behaviour in versions 1.1.1 and 1.2.0. We have not > yet tested this against 1.2.1 but will do so and report our findings. -- 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
