             Summary: ExternalCatalog.TablePartitionSpec doesn't preserve 
partition column order
                 Key: SPARK-14918
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14918
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Cheng Lian
            Assignee: Cheng Lian


Equivalent entity of {{ExternalCatalog.TablePartitionSpec}} in Hive is a 
{{LinkedHashMap}} returned by {{Partition.getSpec()}}, which preserves 
partition column order.

However, we are using a {{scala.immutable.Map}} to store the result, which no 
longer preserves the original order. What makes it worse, Scala specializes 
immutable maps with less than 5 elements. And these specialized versions do 
preserve order, thus hides this issue in test cases since we never use more 
than 4 partition columns.
