Martin Mauch resolved SPARK-23677.
----------------------------------
    Resolution: Duplicate

> Selecting columns from joined DataFrames with the same origin yields wrong 
> results

>                 Key: SPARK-23677
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-23677
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Spark Core, SQL
>    Affects Versions: 2.2.1, 2.3.0
>            Reporter: Martin Mauch
>            Priority: Major
>
> When trying to join two DataFrames with the same origin DataFrame and later 
> selecting columns from the join, Spark can't distinguish between the columns 
> and gives a wrong (or at least very surprising) result. One can work around 
> this using expr.
> Here is a minimal example:
>  
> {code:java}
> import spark.implicits._
> val edf = Seq((1), (2), (3), (4), (5)).toDF("num")
> val big = edf.where(edf("num") > 2).alias("big")
> val small = edf.where(edf("num") < 4).alias("small")
> small.join(big, expr("big.num == (small.num + 1)")).select(small("num"), 
> big("num")).show()
> // +---+---+
> // |num|num|
> // +---+---+
> // | 2| 2|
> // | 3| 3|
> // +—+—+
> small.join(big, expr("big.num == (small.num + 1)")).select(expr("small.num"), 
> expr("big.num")).show()
> // +---+---+
> // |num|num|
> // +---+---+
> // | 2| 3|
> // | 3| 4|
> // +---+---+
> {code}
