[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-12954) NPE with str_to_map on null strings

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12954?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15235962#comment-15235962 ] 

Janick Bernet commented on HIVE-12954:
--------------------------------------

This also appears to be in Hive 1.0. The closely related 'split' function does handle NULL transparently, without an NPE.
