Jark Wu created FLINK-15161: ------------------------------- Summary: Introduce TypeTransformation interface and basic transformations Key: FLINK-15161 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-15161 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Table SQL / API Reporter: Jark Wu Assignee: Jark Wu
Currently, the default DataType derived from properties is the default conversion now. However, some connectors/formats are still using sql Timestamp. But bridging DataType into sql Timestamp is not simple, because DataType is nested. So we propose to introduce a TypeTransformation which transform one data type to another, this is also a useful tool for FLIP-65. The proposal including: - Remove {{CallContext}} from the exiting {{TypeTransformation}}. - add a package {{o.a.f.table.types.inference.transforms}} - add commonly used transform classes there, e.g. {{timeToSqlTypes}} - add a class `o.a.f.table.types.inference.TypeTransforms` for listing all available transforms -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
