Volodymyr Vysotskyi updated DRILL-7345: --------------------------------------- Fix Version/s: 1.17.0 > Strange Behavior for UDFs with ComplexWriter Output > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DRILL-7345 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-7345 > Project: Apache Drill > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.17.0 > Reporter: Charles Givre > Assignee: Volodymyr Vysotskyi > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.17.0 > > > I wrote some UDFs recently and noticed some strange behavior when debugging > them. > This behavior only occurs when there is ComplexWriter as output. > Basically, if the input to the UDF is nullable, Drill doesn't recognize the > UDF at all. I've found that the only way to get Drill to recognize UDFs that > have ComplexWriters as output is: > * Use a non-nullable holder as input > * Remove the null setting completely from the function parameters. > This approach has a drawback in that if the function receives a null value, > it will throw an error and halt execution. My preference would be to allow > null handling, but I've not figured out how to make that happen. > Note: This behavior ONLY occurs when using a ComplexWriter as output. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.14#76016)
