[jira] [Updated] (SPARK-34993) from_json() acts differently on created and literal strings with backslashes

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-34993?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Lauri Koobas updated SPARK-34993:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
JSON string with the value that contains backslashes fails to be recovered by `from_json()`.

I found that if the same string is created with `to_json(named_struct())` then it actually does work.

 

The following code to reproduce. I would expect all of these methods to return the same (correct) result:
{code:java}
select to_json(named_struct('msg', ''))
 , schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '')))
 , from_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '')), schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', ''))))
 , from_json('{"msg":""}', schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', ''))))
 , from_json('{"msg":""}', 'msg string')
 
{code}
 

  was:

I found that if the same string is created with `to_json(named_struct())` then it actually does work.

 

The following code to reproduce. I would expect all of these methods to return the same (correct) result:

```select to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\'))
, schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\')))
, from_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\')), schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\'))))
, from_json('\{"msg":"\\"}', schema_of_json(to_json(named_struct('msg', '\\'))))
, from_json('\{"msg":"\\"}', 'msg string')

```
