>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.1, 2.1.0

> This query fails with a [NullPointerException on line 247|https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/sql/catalyst/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/catalyst/expressions/regexpExpressions.scala#L247]:
> {code}
> SELECT POSEXPLODE(SPLIT(REGEXP_REPLACE(ranks, '[\\[ \\]]', ''), ',')) AS (rank, col0) FROM table;
> {code}
> The problem is that POSEXPLODE is causing the REGEXP_REPLACE to be serialized after it is instantiated. The null value is a transient StringBuffer that should hold the result. The fix is to make the result value lazy.
