Xinyi Yu created SPARK-38650: -------------------------------- Summary: Better ParseException message for char without length Key: SPARK-38650 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-38650 Project: Spark Issue Type: Improvement Components: SQL Affects Versions: 3.3.0 Reporter: Xinyi Yu
We support char and varchar types. But when users input the type without length, the message is confusing and not helpful at all: {code:sql} > SELECT cast('a' as CHAR) DataType char is not supported.(line 1, pos 19) == SQL == SELECT cast('a' AS CHAR) -------------------^^^{code} This ticket would like to improve the error message for these special cases to: {code:java} Datatype char requires a length parameter, for example char(10). Please specify the length.{code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
