James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-2476:
---------------------------------------
Agreed, [~julianhyde]. If you have a strong case for needing this, [~kliew],
please let us know.
> Use the standard string concatenation operator symbol

> Key: PHOENIX-2476
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-2476
> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 4.6.0
> Reporter: Kevin Liew
> Labels: newbie, phoenix, string
>
> Phoenix uses '||' as the string concatenation operator symbol instead of the
> commonly used '+'
> https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-CA/library/ms177561.aspx
> If we try to use '+' we get an error from the queryserver
> {noformat}Type mismatch. VARCHAR for (COLUMN1 + KEYCOLUMN){noformat}
> The '+'
> operator is not implemented for VARCHAR so it would be an improvement to
> implement the standard function for that '+' symbol
