Hey [~jiawei.wang],

Sorry for the lack of response. I apparently didn't have enough privileges to 
add you as a contributor to the project but I see it was sorted out meanwhile.

> {code}
>  If we assume the user has millions of rows in a table and makes a cast on 
> them it's hard to debug which one of the made the cast fail as there is no 
> indication in the error message. Let's include at least the input value of 
> the cast to the message.
> Here we have everything available to do so:

>   if (val.is_null) return DateVal::null();
>   DateValue dv = DateValue::Parse(reinterpret_cast<char*>(val.ptr), val.len, 
> true);
>   if (UNLIKELY(!dv.IsValid())) {
>     ctx->SetError("String to Date parse failed.");
>     return DateVal::null();
