Description

Test DLL :

CREATE TABLE `date_dim`(
  `d_date_sk` int, 
  `d_date_id` string, 
  `d_date` date, 
  `d_current_week` string, 
  `d_current_month` string, 
  `d_current_quarter` string, 
  `d_current_year` string) ;

Hive query :

    SELECT *  
    FROM   date_dim     
    WHERE d_date  IN ('2000-03-22','2001-03-22')  ;

In 1.0.0 , the above query fails with:

    FAILED: SemanticException [Error 10014]: Line 1:180 Wrong arguments ''2001-03-22'': The arguments for IN should be the same type! Types are: {date IN (string, string)}

I changed the query as given to pass the error :

    SELECT *  
    FROM   date_dim     
    WHERE d_date  IN (CAST('2000-03-22' AS DATE) , CAST('2001-03-22' AS DATE)  )  ;

But it works without casting :

    SELECT *  
    FROM   date_dim     
    WHERE d_date   = '2000-03-22' ;
