Furcy Pin commented on SPARK-17212:
-----------------------------------
Hi,
I have the same issue between DateType and StringType on Sparkv 2.0.2, do you
know if this pull request fixes it?
in Spark 2.0.2 :
{code}
spark-sql> select greatest("2015-02-02", date("2015-01-01")) ;
Error in query: cannot resolve 'greatest('2015-02-02', CAST('2015-01-01' AS
DATE))' due to data type mismatch: The expressions should all have the same
type, got GREATEST(string, date).; line 1 pos 7
{code}
in Hive 2.0:
{code}
hive (default)> select greatest("2015-02-02", date("2015-01-01")) ;
OK
_c0
2015-02-02

> Key: SPARK-17212
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17212
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Reporter: Hyukjin Kwon
> Assignee: Hyukjin Kwon
> Fix For: 2.1.0
>
>
> Currently, type-widening does not work between {{TimestampType}} and
> {{DateType}}.
> This applies to {{SetOperation}}, {{Union}}, {{In}}, {{CaseWhen}},
> {{Greatest}}, {{Leatest}}, {{CreateArray}}, {{CreateMap}} and {{Coalesce}}.
> For a simple example,
> {code}
> Seq(Tuple2(new Timestamp(0), new Date(0))).toDF("a",
> "b").selectExpr("greatest(a, b)").show()
> {code}
> {code}
> cannot resolve 'greatest(`a`, `b`)' due to data type mismatch: The
> expressions should all have the same type, got GREATEST(timestamp, date)
> {code}
> or Union as below:
> {code}
> val a = Seq(Tuple1(new Timestamp(0))).toDF()
> val b = Seq(Tuple1(new Date(0))).toDF()
> a.union(b).show()
> {code}
> {code}
> Union can only be performed on tables with the compatible column types.
> DateType <> TimestampType at the first column of the second table;
> {code}
