Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-7314: -------------------------------------- The bug is also documented in the UDF wiki, in an information box at the beginning: * [LanguageManual -- Operators and UDFs | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+UDF] > Wrong results of UDF when hive.cache.expr.evaluation is set > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7314 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7314 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.12.0, 0.13.0, 0.13.1 > Reporter: dima machlin > Assignee: Navis > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-7314.1.patch.txt > > > It seems that the expression caching doesn't work when using UDF inside > another UDF or a hive function. > For example : > tbl has one row : 'a','b' > The following query : > {code:sql} select concat(custUDF(a),' ', custUDF(b)) from tbl; {code} > returns 'a a' > seems to cache custUDF(a) and use it for custUDF(b). > Same query without the concat works fine. > Replacing the concat with another custom UDF also returns 'a a' -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
