>                 Key: SPARK-4856
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4856
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SQL
>            Reporter: Cheng Hao
>
> We have data like:
> {code:java}
> TestSQLContext.sparkContext.parallelize(
>   
> """{"ip":"27.31.100.29","headers":{"Host":"1.abc.com","Charset":"UTF-8"}}""" 
> ::
>   """{"ip":"27.31.100.29","headers":{}}""" ::
>   """{"ip":"27.31.100.29","headers":""}""" :: Nil)
> {code:xml}
> As empty string (the "headers") will be considered as String in the beginning 
> (in line 2 and 3), it ignores the real nested data type (struct type 
> "headers" in line 1), and also take the line 1 (the "headers") as String 
> Type, which is not our expected.
