Spark 2.0, DataFrame, filter a string column, unequal operator (!==) is deprecated
I am trying to filter a DataFrame by keeping only those rows that have a certain string column non-empty. The operation is the following: df.filter($"stringColumn" !== "") My compiler shows that the !== is deprecated since I moved to Spark 2.0.1 How can I check if a string column value is empty in Spark > 2.0? Use =!= as a replacement: df.filter($"stringColumn" =!= "") 来源: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40154104/spark-2-0-dataframe-filter-a-string-column-unequal-operator-is-deprecat
