Apache Spark commented on SPARK-41931: -------------------------------------- User 'RunyaoChen' has created a pull request for this issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/39711 > Improve UNSUPPORTED_DATA_TYPE message for complex types > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-41931 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-41931 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Spark Core > Affects Versions: 3.4.0 > Reporter: Serge Rielau > Priority: Major > > spark-sql> SELECT CAST(array(1, 2, 3) AS ARRAY); > [UNSUPPORTED_DATATYPE] Unsupported data type "ARRAY"(line 1, pos 30) > == SQL == > SELECT CAST(array(1, 2, 3) AS ARRAY) > ------------------------------^^^ > This error message is confusing. We support ARRAY. We just require it to be > typed. > We should have an error like: > [INCOMPLETE_TYPE_DEFINITION.ARRAY] The definition of type `ARRAY` is > incomplete. You must provide an element type. For example: `ARRAY\<INT\>`. > Similarly for STRUCT and MAP. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
