Review comment: Thank you for checking, @LantaoJin . This is also confusing to me. From Hive side, `VOID` is a type name. But, Apache Spark side, - We have `null` literal: https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-ref-literals.html#null-literal - We have only `nullable` types: https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-ref-datatypes.html ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
