Gang Tim Liu commented on HIVE-2971: ------------------------------------ Yes, removing space like the following works fine: SELECT GET_JSON_OBJECT("{\"FormName\": 12345}", "$.FormName") FROM akramer_one_row; > GET_JSON_OBJECT fails on some valid JSON keys > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-2971 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2971 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: UDF > Reporter: Adam Kramer > Priority: Minor > > hive> SELECT GET_JSON_OBJECT("{\"Form Name\": 12345}", "$.Form\ Name") FROM > akramer_one_row; > Mapred Local Task Succeeded . Convert the Join into MapJoin > OK > NULL > ...this also returns null for "$.Form Name" and "$.Form\\ Name". It should > return the relevant key. > Removing the space works fine, however, spaces are allowed as JSON keys (see > spec at http://www.json.org/ ). As such, this is a bug. > Claiming that this is org.json's problem, or something similar, does not > solve this bug. It's Hive that claims this gets a JSON object, so it needs to > provide the JSON object. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
