Not sure why the rest of my message was cut off. It is still in my sent mail.
Here is the entire message:
Hi John,
It appears that the call ObjectInspectorUtils.compare(myagg.max, xInputOI, px,
xInputOI), which tries to compare 2 integer writables, failed in casting. Here
is a fragment of the stack trace:
...
Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.hadoop.io.IntWritable
cannot be cast to org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.lazy.LazyPrimitive
at
org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.lazy.objectinspector.primitive.AbstractPrimitiveLazyObjectInspector.getPrimitiveWritableObject(AbstractPrimitiveLazyObjectInspector.java:37)
at
org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.lazy.objectinspector.primitive.LazyIntObjectInspector.get(LazyIntObjectInspector.java:38)
at
org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.objectinspector.ObjectInspectorUtils.compare(ObjectInspectorUtils.java:497)
at
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.udf.generic.GenericUDAFArgMax$GenericUDAFArgMaxEvaluator.internalMerge(GenericUDAFArgMax.java:165)
at
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.udf.generic.GenericUDAFArgMax$GenericUDAFArgMaxEvaluator.iterate(GenericUDAFArgMax.java:142)
...
Not sure why the casting fails. Both myagg.max and px were passed in as
arguments of iterate(). Their data types are not known at compile time. That is
the only reason why I use ObjectInspectorUtils.compare() to compare them. Do
you see any problem with that?

> With HIVE-1128, users can already do what argmax and argmin does.
> But it will be helpful if we provide these functions explicitly so people
