> Spark Thrift GetResultSetMetadata describes a VARCHAR as a STRING
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-11660
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11660
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.5.0
> Reporter: Chip Sands
>
> In the Spark SQL thrift interface the GetResultSetMetadata reply packet that
> describes the result set metadata, reports a column that is defined as a
> VARCHAR in the database, as Native type of STRING. Data still returns
> correctly in the thrift string type but ODBC/JDBC is not able to correctly
> describe the data type being return or its defined maximum length.
> FYI Hive returns it correctly.
