Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-12816:
------------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Apache Spark)
> Schema generation for type aliases does not work
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-12816
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12816
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Spark Core
> Reporter: Jakob Odersky
>
> Related to the second part of SPARK-12777.
> Assume the following:
> {code}
> case class Container[A](a: A)
> type IntContainer = Container[Int]
> {code}
> Generating a schema with
> {code}org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.ScalaReflection.schemaFor[IntContainer]{code}
> fails miserably with {{NoSuchElementException: : head of empty list
> (ScalaReflection.scala:504)}} (the same exception as described in the related
> issues)
> Since {{schemaFor}} is called whenever a schema is implicitly needed,
> {{Datasets}} cannot be created from certain aliased types.
