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

             Summary: Potential null pointer reference in 
ObjectInspectorUtils#compareTypes()
                 Key: HIVE-7997
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7997
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Ted Yu


{code}
      if (childFieldsList1 == null && childFieldsList2 == null) {
        return true;
      }

      if (childFieldsList1.size() != childFieldsList2.size()) {
        return false;
      }
{code}
If either childFieldsList1 or childFieldsList2 is null but not both, the second 
if statement would produce NPE.
