Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-14027: ----------------------------------------- Instead of adding converter wondering if its possible to get OI itself from outer side? > NULL values produced by left outer join do not behave as NULL > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-14027 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14027 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Query Processor > Affects Versions: 1.2.1, 2.2.0 > Reporter: Vaibhav Gumashta > Assignee: Jesus Camacho Rodriguez > Attachments: HIVE-14027.01.patch, HIVE-14027.02.patch, > HIVE-14027.03.patch, HIVE-14027.patch > > > Consider the following setup: > {code} > create table tbl (n bigint, t string); > insert into tbl values (1, 'one'); > insert into tbl values(2, 'two'); > select a.n, a.t, isnull(b.n), isnull(b.t) from (select * from tbl where n = > 1) a left outer join (select * from tbl where 1 = 2) b on a.n = b.n; > 1 one false true > {code} > The query should return true for isnull(b.n). > I've tested by inserting a row with null value for the bigint column into > tbl, and isnull returns true in that case. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
