> Key: HUDI-5971
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HUDI-5971
> Project: Apache Hudi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: spark-sql
> Affects Versions: 0.12.2, 0.13.0
> Reporter: Alberic Liu
> Priority: Major
> Labels: schema-evolution
>
> reproduce steps:
> * create the test table:
> {code:java}
> CREATE TABLE default.schema_evolution_test (
> id bigint,
> test_array array<int>,
> test_array_struct ARRAY<STRUCT<name:STRING,
> age:INT>>)
> USING hudi
> TBLPROPERTIES (
> type = 'cow',
> primaryKey = 'id')
> LOCATION 's3://trino-ci-test/schema_evolution_test'
> {code}
> * enable the full schema evolution
> {code:java}
> SET hoodie.schema.on.read.enable=true{code}
> * alter the nested table column type, there is exception
> {code:java}
> SQL A: alter table default.schema_evolution_test alter column
> test_array_struct type ARRAY<STRUCT<name:STRING, age:FLOAT>>;{code}
> {code:java}
> Exception: Failed in [alter table default.schema_evolution_test alter column
> test_array_struct type ARRAY<STRUCT<name:STRING, age:FLOAT>>]
> java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: only support update primitive type but
> find nest column: test_array_struct
> at
> org.apache.hudi.internal.schema.action.TableChanges$ColumnUpdateChange.updateColumnType(TableChanges.java:89)
> at
> org.apache.spark.sql.hudi.command.AlterTableCommand.$anonfun$applyUpdateAction$1(AlterTableCommand.scala:149)
> {code}
> * alter the inner struct type, it can execute successfully
> {code:java}
> SQL B: alter table default.schema_evolution_test alter column
> test_array_struct.element.age type FLOAT;{code}
> * Describe the table schema；
> {code:java}
> desc default.schema_evolution_test;
> id bigint
>
> test_array array<int>
> test_array_struct array<struct<name:string,age:float>> {code}
> * Questions:
> ## is this a bug of alter table column type for Hudi?
> ## Both SQL A and SQL B is used to change the type from
> array<struct<name:string,age:int>> to array<struct<name:string,age:float>>,
> why SQL A do not supported?
> ## SQL B is worked as expected or not? and SQL A will be supported in next
> release?
