Zoltan Haindrich updated HIVE-1478: ----------------------------------- Attachment: HIVE-1478.2.patch patch#2) removed qtest cases which contained invalid where expressions. it turned out that there was a ticket to do support this conversion for vectorization(HIVE-13659)...not sure what to do now: * close this as won't fix - and open an another issue that this fails for mr * i've undone the {{VectorizationContext}} change of HIVE-13659 in this patch - as it will became an unreachable codepath after this change. I think it would be better to stick to the standard...because casting anything into a boolean may help a bad query to hide in the woods ;) [~ashutoshc],[~mmccline] what's your opinion? > Non-boolean expression in WHERE should be rejected > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1478 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1478 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.7.0 > Reporter: Paul Yang > Assignee: Zoltan Haindrich > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HIVE-1478.1.patch, HIVE-1478.2.patch > > > Automatically casting strings or other types into boolean may confuse even > the user - and somehow it doesn't always work (HIVE-15089) > sql2011 states that "where expression" should accept a boolean expression. > Original reported problem: > If the expression in the where clause does not evaluate to a boolean, the job > will fail with the following exception in the task logs: > Query: > SELECT key FROM src WHERE 1; > Exception in mapper: > 2010-07-21 17:00:31,460 FATAL ExecMapper: > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.metadata.HiveException: Hive Runtime Error while > processing row {"key":"238","value":"val_238"} > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.MapOperator.process(MapOperator.java:417) > at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.ExecMapper.map(ExecMapper.java:180) > at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapRunner.run(MapRunner.java:50) > at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.runOldMapper(MapTask.java:358) > at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.run(MapTask.java:307) > at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child.main(Child.java:159) > Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Integer cannot be cast to > java.lang.Boolean > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.FilterOperator.processOp(FilterOperator.java:84) > at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.Operator.process(Operator.java:457) > at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.Operator.forward(Operator.java:697) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.TableScanOperator.processOp(TableScanOperator.java:45) > at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.Operator.process(Operator.java:457) > at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.Operator.forward(Operator.java:697) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.MapOperator.process(MapOperator.java:400) > ... 5 more -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
