Restrict BytesType compatibility to scalar types only BytesType.isValueCompatibleWith() previously accepted all types, including frozen collections and UDTs. This was incorrect because converting collections or UDTs to raw bytes is nonsensical - it allows reading raw serialized bytes which have no meaningful interpretation. This patch restricts BytesType to only accept simple scalar types by checking !isCollection() && !isUDT() in isValueCompatibleWithInternal(). @driftx <- it was your task, I was happy to help! -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
