Phabricator commented on HIVE-2810: ----------------------------------- cwsteinbach has commented on the revision "HIVE-2810 [jira] Implement NULL-safe equality operator <=>". Yup, exactly. I tried running the query from HIVE-741: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-741?focusedCommentId=12896789&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-12896789 This works: select * from input1 a join input1 b on a.key=b.value; But I get the following error when I try to run this: select * from input1 a join input1 b on a.key <=> b.value; FAILED: Error in semantic analysis: Line 1:40 Both left and right aliases encountered in JOIN 'value' Looks like this may be a parsing issue? HIVE-741 added a join_nulls.q test to clientpositive. I think it would be a good idea to augment this testcase with null-safe equality queries.
