----------------------------------

             Summary: Replace with null when GenericUDFBaseCompare has a 
non-interpretable val
                 Key: HIVE-24632
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24632
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Parser
    Affects Versions: 4.0.0
            Reporter: Zhihua Deng


The query

 
{code:java}
create table ccn_table(key int, value string);
set hive.cbo.enable=false;
select * from ccn_table where key > '123a'  ;
{code}
 

will scan all records(partitions) compared to older version,  as the plan 
tells: 

 
{noformat}
STAGE PLANS:
 Stage: Stage-0
   Fetch Operator
     limit: -1
     Processor Tree:

           predicate: (key > '123a') (type: boolean)

When the TypeCheckProcFactory#getXpathOrFuncExprNodeDesc validates the expr: 
+key > '123a',+  the operator(>) is not an equal operator(=),  so the factory 
returns +key > '123a'+ as it is.  However all the subclass of 
GenericUDFBaseCompare(except GenericUDFOPEqualNS and GenericUDFOPNotEqualNS) 
would return null if either side of the function children is null,  so it's 
safe to return constant null when processing the expr +`key > '123a'`+.  This 
will  benifit some queries when the cbo is disabled.
