Hi,

I would like to find out when it was the last time I paid a company with
Debit Card


This is the way I do it.

1) Find the date when I paid last
2) Find the rest of details from the row(s)

So

var HASHTAG = "XYZ"
scala> var maxdate =
ll_18740868.filter(col("transactiondescription").contains(HASHTAG)).agg(max("transactiondate")).collect.apply(0)
maxdate: org.apache.spark.sql.Row = [2015-12-15]

OK so it was 2015-12-15


Now I want to get the rest of the columns. This one works when I hard code
the maxdate!


scala> ll_18740868.filter(col("transactiondescription").contains(HASHTAG)
&& col("transactiondate") === "2015-12-15").select("transactiondate",
"transactiondescription", "debitamount").show
+---------------+----------------------+-----------+
|transactiondate|transactiondescription|debitamount|
+---------------+----------------------+-----------+
|     2015-12-15|  XYZ LTD CD 4636 |      10.95|
+---------------+----------------------+-----------+

Now if I want to use the var maxdate in place of "2015-12-15", how would I
do that?

I tried lit(maxdate) etc but they are all giving me error?

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unsupported literal type class
org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.expressions.GenericRowWithSchema [2015-12-15]


Thanks
