Amareshwari Sriramadasu updated HIVE-741: ----------------------------------------- Attachment: patch-741.txt Attaching a simple patch which fixes JoinOperator (for reduce-side joins) and MapJoinOperator (for map-side joins) to not group the null join keys together. Any comments on the approach/code are welcome. Verified that SMBMapJoinOperator already filters nulls properly. > NULL is not handled correctly in join > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-741 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-741 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Ning Zhang > Assignee: Amareshwari Sriramadasu > Attachments: patch-741.txt > > > With the following data in table input4_cb: > Key Value > ------ -------- > NULL 325 > 18 NULL > The following query: > {code} > select * from input4_cb a join input4_cb b on a.key = b.value; > {code} > returns the following result: > NULL 325 18 NULL > The correct result should be empty set. > When 'null' is replaced by '' it works. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
