ajacques commented on issue #20974: [SPARK-23862][SQL] Spark ExpressionEncoder should support java enum type in scala URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/20974#issuecomment-449160434 If I understand this PR correctly, this is going to be internally using the String representation of the Enum instead of some type of ordinal. I like the support for Enums, but I've seen cases where using a string instead of the ordinal significantly increases the data set size. Is there a reason why we're preferring String over an ordinal?
