             Summary: Make data types in Spark Connect Rust compare and hash as 
PySpark's do
                 Key: SPARK-60921
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-60921
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Connect
    Affects Versions: connect-rust-4.3.0
            Reporter: Hyukjin Kwon


In PySpark, two data types are equal when they are of the same class and have 
the same attributes ({{DataType.__eq__}}), and a data type hashes as 
{{hash(str(self))}}. The Rust-backed Python client's data types, except 
{{StructField}}, define no equality, so they compare by identity, and so these 
PySpark 4.3.0 results differ:

* {{IntegerType() == IntegerType()}}, {{DecimalType(10, 2) == DecimalType(10, 
2)}}, {{ArrayType(IntegerType()) == ArrayType(IntegerType())}}, 
{{MapType(StringType(), LongType()) == MapType(StringType(), LongType())}} and 
the same for {{StructType}} are true. The client returns false for all of them, 
and true for {{!=}}.
* So does every comparison of a schema or a field type, as in {{df.schema == 
StructType(...)}}, {{field.dataType == StringType()}}, or a data type and its 
pickled copy.
* Equal data types hash equally, and {{StructField}} is hashable. The client's 
hashes differ, and its {{StructField}} is unhashable.

Make data types compare and hash as PySpark's do.
