[Divya Gehlot]

Hi ,

Here is example snippet in scala

// Convert to a Date typeval timestamp2datetype: (Column) => Column =
(x) => { to_date(x) }df = df.withColumn("date",
timestamp2datetype(col("end_date")))

Hope this helps !

Thanks,

Divya

[Spark Java] Add new column in DataSet based on existed column

[Junfeng Chen]

I am working on adding a date transformed field on existed dataset.

The current dataset contains a column named timestamp in ISO format. I want
to parse this field to joda time type, and then extract the year, month,
day, hour info as new column attaching to original dataset.
I have tried df.withColumn function, but it seems only support simple
expression rather than customized function like MapFunction.
How to solve it?

Thanks!
