Ryan Pridgeon created HIVE-8856: ----------------------------------- Summary: Multiple joins must have conditionals in same order Key: HIVE-8856 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8856 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Ryan Pridgeon
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM TBL_A,TBL_B,TBL_C WHERE A.key1 = B.key1 AND A.key2 = B.key2 AND A.key2 = C.key2 AND A.Key1 = B.key1 Where key1 is a string and key2 is a double. Note: This effects explicit joins as well A look at the query plan reveals the following: Map Join Operator condition map: Inner Join 0 to 1 Inner Join 0 to 2 condition expressions: 0 {prdct_id} {bu_cd} 1 {prdct_id} {bu_cd} 2 {prdct_id} {bu_cd} keys: 0 UDFToDouble(prdct_id) (type: double), bu_cd (type: double) 1 UDFToDouble(prdct_id) (type: double), bu_cd (type: double) 2 bu_cd (type: double), UDFToDouble(prdct_id) (type: double) The ordering of keys within a join should not dictate it's type. This is something the query optimizer should handle prior to making the plan. This way users do not have to worry about ordrering their conditionals. At the very least it should fail, instead it silently converts them to nulls and returns 0. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
