[jira] Updated: (HIVE-285) UNION ALL does not allow different types in the same column

["Raghotham Murthy (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-285?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Raghotham Murthy updated HIVE-285:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: hive-285.1.patch

Union should reject mismatched schemas. genUnionPlan was not checking for types (only number and names of columns). I have now added checking for types as well. Also added a negative test case.

> "Explain" shows that the plan for the 2 union-all operands have different output types that are converged to STRING, but there is no UDFToString inserted for "0 + b.v AS v" and as a result, SerDe was failing because it expects a String but is passed a Double.
