[jira] [Created] (SPARK-29776) rpad returning invalid value when parameter is empty

ABHISHEK KUMAR GUPTA created SPARK-29776:
--------------------------------------------

             Summary: rpad returning invalid value when parameter is empty
                 Key: SPARK-29776
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-29776
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: ABHISHEK KUMAR GUPTA


As per rpad definition
 rpad
 rpad(str, len, pad) - Returns str, right-padded with pad to a length of len
 If str is longer than len, the return value is shortened to len characters.
 *In case of empty pad string, the return value is null.*

Below is Example

In Spark:

0: jdbc:hive2://10.18.19.208:23040/default> SELECT rpad('hi', 5, '');
+----------------+
| rpad(hi, 5, ) |
+----------------+
| hi |
+----------------+

It should return NULL as per definition.

 

Hive behavior is correct as per definition it returns NULL when pad is empty String

INFO : Concurrency mode is disabled, not creating a lock manager
+-------+
| _c0 |
+-------+
| NULL |
+-------+
