[jira] [Comment Edited] (SPARK-17694) convert DataFrame to DataSet should check columns match

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17694?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15527887#comment-15527887 ]

It returns a DataSet, for example {noformat} DataSet[FooType] {noformat}

And then the returned value should behave as a DataSet of FooType, while it doesn't. The later step of transformation such as {{union}}, may fail because the DataSet has more than expected columns.

Consider the following code, the third line should never fail, since we know {{ds00}} and {{ds01}} have the same DataSet type.
{code}
val ds00 = df00.as[FooType]
val ds01 = df01.as[FooType]
ds00.union(ds010)
{code}

>            Priority: Minor
>
> The {{as}} method, which converts a DataFrame to DataSet requires the user to ensure the columns are match. And it success even the columns do not match, and cause error at later steps.
> It would be better, to let {{as}} match the columns, and fail/warn when the match fails.
