>                 Key: SPARK-12816
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12816
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Spark Core
>            Reporter: Jakob Odersky
>
> Related to the second part of SPARK-12777.
> Assume the following:
> {code}
> case class Container[A](a: A)
> type IntContainer = Container[Int]
> {code}
> Generating a schema with {code}org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.ScalaReflection.schemaFor[IntContainer]{code} fails miserably with {{NoSuchElementException: : head of empty list  (ScalaReflection.scala:504)}} (the same exception as described in the related issues)
> Since {{schemaFor}} is called whenever a schema is implicitly needed, {{Datasets}} cannot be created from certain aliased types.
