             Summary: Validate function arguments in RelBuilder
                 Key: CALCITE-1073
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1073
             Project: Calcite
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Julian Hyde
            Assignee: Julian Hyde


RelBuilder should validate function arguments. For example, if you try to 
create a call to SUBSTRING, RelBuilder should make sure that the arguments are 
of type VARCHAR (or CHAR), INTEGER, INTEGER.

SqlOperator has the means to validate itself, but it's a bit tricky to use it, 
because those means were intended for ASTs (SqlNode). In SqlNode format the 
arguments are sometimes different (e.g. CAST has 2 arguments in SqlNode format 
and only one in RexNode format).

RelBuilder should also insert implicit casts, and should resolve overloaded 
operators.
