[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-12348) PySpark _inferSchema crashes with incorrect exception on an empty RDD

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12348?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15059119#comment-15059119 ] 

Hurshal Patel commented on SPARK-12348:
---------------------------------------

whoops, i think this was intentional but there is still value in returning a more complete error like "The RDD is empty, can not infer schema"
instead of raising the generic error
