Jayadevan M commented on SPARK-16892:
-------------------------------------
I hope you can use flatMap for this scenario. For example
var array=Array(Array(1, 2, 3), Array(4, 5), Array(-1, -2, 0));
var rdd = sc.parallelize(array);
rdd.flatMap(x=>x).collect();
> flatten function to get flat array (or map) column from array of array (or
> array of map) column

> flatten(input)
> Converts input of array of array type into flat array type by inserting
> elements of all element arrays into single array. Example:
> input: [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5], [-1, -2, 0]]
> output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, -1, -2, 0]
> Converts input of array of map type into flat map type by inserting key-value
> pairs of all element maps into single map. Example:
> input: [(1 -> "one", 2 -> "two"), (0 -> "zero"), (4 -> "four")]
> output: (1 -> "one", 2 -> "two", 0 -> "zero", 4 -> "four")
