Lin Liu created HIVE-13372: ------------------------------ Summary: Hive Macro overwritten when multiple macros are used in one column Key: HIVE-13372 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13372 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Hive Affects Versions: 1.2.1 Reporter: Lin Liu Priority: Critical
When multiple macros are used in one column, results of the later ones are over written by that of the first. For example: Suppose we have created a table called macro_test with single column x in STRING type, and with data as: "a" "bb" "ccc" We also create three macros: CREATE TEMPORARY MACRO STRING_LEN(x string) length(x); CREATE TEMPORARY MACRO STRING_LEN_PLUS_ONE(x string) length(x)+1; CREATE TEMPORARY MACRO STRING_LEN_PLUS_TWO(x string) length(x)+2; When we ran the following query, SELECT CONCAT(STRING_LEN(x), ":", STRING_LEN_PLUS_ONE(x), ":", STRING_LEN_PLUS_TWO(x)) a FROM macro_test SORT BY a DESC; We get result: 3:3:3 2:2:2 1:1:1 instead of expected: 3:4:5 2:3:4 1:2:3 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
