-----------------------------

             Summary: Avro Union(complex) type containing nullable type and 
using null as default failed
                 Key: HAWQ-53
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAWQ-53
             Project: Apache HAWQ
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: External Tables & PXF
            Reporter: Goden Yao
            Assignee: Shivram Mani


>From code review 
>[AvroResolver.java|https://github.com/apache/incubator-hawq/blob/master/pxf/pxf-hdfs/src/main/java/com/pivotal/pxf/plugins/hdfs/AvroResolver.java],
> we didn't specify null situation for complex types:
- Array
- Map
- Record

when using union type , which contains a nullable type(union) and use null as 
default - I think complex type with nullable type in value schema and with null 
as default is the problem.

{code:json}
...
"name" : "meta__kvpairs",
    "type" : [ "null", {
      "type" : "map",
      "values" : [ "null", "string" ],
      "default" : null
    } ],
    "default" : null
  },
...
{code}

Create external table from pxf to read it:

{code:sql}
"CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE meetmeevent_hdfs(
sourcetimestamp bigint,
