godfrey he updated CALCITE-2690:
--------------------------------
    Description: Currently, We use a lot of {{RelNode}}'s {{toString}} method 
to get digest in Calcite project. However the semantics of {{toString}} method 
is ambiguity.  If some developers do not know the {{toString}} value of a 
{{RelNode}} will be used as digest and override {{toString}} method 
arbitrarily, the optimization result will be unexpected. So I suggest that we 
should use {{getDescription}} instead of {{toString}} to get {{RelNode}}'s 
digest.  (was: Currently, We use a lot of RelNode's toString method to get 
digest in Calcite project. However the semantics of `toString` method is 
ambiguity.  If some developers do not know the toString value of a RelNode will 
be used as digest and override toString method arbitrarily, the optimization 
result will be unexpected. So I suggest that we should use ·getDescription· 
instead of ·toString· to get RelNode's digest in Calcite.)
