However, in practice we do not see people using keys other than > strings. And allowing multiple types is causing us issues in serializing > data (we have to check what every key type is) and in the design for non-java > UDFs (since many scripting languages include associative arrays such as > Perl's hash). > So I propose we scope back maps to only have string keys. This would be a > non-compatible change. But I am not aware of anyone using non-string keys, > so hopefully it would have little or no impact. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
