Thanks for the comments, although the issue is not in limit() predicate. It's something with spark being unable to resolve the expression.
I can do smth like this. It works as it suppose to: df.select(df.col("*")).where(df.col("x1").equalTo(3.0)).show(5); But I think old fashioned sql style have to work also. I have df.registeredTempTable("tmptable") and then df.select("select * from tmptable where x1 = '3.0'").show(); org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: cannot resolve 'select * from tmp where x1 = '1.0'' given input columns x1, x4, x5, x3, x2; at org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.analysis.package$AnalysisErrorAt.failAnalysis(package.scala:42) at org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.analysis.CheckAnalysis$$anonfun$checkAnalysis$1$$anonfun$apply$2.applyOrElse(CheckAnalysis.scala:56) at org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.analysis.CheckAnalysis$$anonfun$checkAnalysis$1$$anonfun$apply$2.applyOrElse(CheckAnalysis.sca >From the first statement I conclude that my custom datasource is perfectly fine. Just wonder how to fix / workaround that. -- Be well!
