["Ted Dunning (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-4754?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Ted Dunning updated DRILL-4754:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
If I have a query which reads from a JSON file where a field is a list or is missing, then the records where the field should missing will instead have a value for that field that is an empty list:
{{
0: jdbc:drill:> select * from maprfs.ted.`bug.json`;
+----+--------+------+
| *a*  |   b    |  c   |
| 3  | [3,2]  | xyz  |
| 7  | []     | wxy  |
| 7  | []     | null  |
+----+--------+------+
2 rows selected (1.279 seconds)
}}
where the file in question contains these two records:
{{
{'a':3, 'b':[3,2], 'c':'xyz'}
{'a':7, 'c':'wxy'}
{"a":7, "b":[]}
}}
The problem is in the second record of the result. I would have expected b to have had the value NULL.

I am using drill-1.6.0.
