@Muhammad Gelban,  I suggest you to find the the usages of an Operator
first , if you want to define a new one to replace it .
In this case, you will find that the SqlStdOperatorTable.CAST is used by
the Sql Converter, there're a few more places need attention.
You can refer to the solution of my custom sql engine , that shows how to
make a HiveSqlCastFunction to replace the default one.
