Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-22739:
------------------------------------
Assignee: Apache Spark
> Additional Expression Support for Objects
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-22739
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-22739
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 2.3.0
> Reporter: Aleksander Eskilson
> Assignee: Apache Spark
>
> Some discussion in Spark-Avro [1] motivates additions and minor changes to
> the {{Objects}} Expressions API [2]. The proposed changes include
> * a generalized form of {{initializeJavaBean}} taking a sequence of
> initialization expressions that can be applied to instances of varying objects
> * an object cast that performs a simple Java type cast against a value
> * making {{ExternalMapToCatalyst}} public, for use in outside libraries
> These changes would facilitate the writing of custom encoders for varying
> objects that cannot already be readily converted to a statically typed
> dataset by a JavaBean encoder (e.g. Avro).
