-------------------------------------------------------------
{quote}Is your goal to put enough capabilities into RelBuilder so that
SqlToRelConverter can use it whenever it needs to create a RelNode? I support
that goal{quote}
I would say yes.
{quote}ToRelContext is difficult to understand, and poorly named. Before we add
it to the RelBuilder API it needs to be better designed.{quote}
I agree
{quote}An alternative is to deprecate toRel{quote}
Which toRel do yo mean ?

> Deprecate TableScanRule

> Key: CALCITE-3769
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-3769
> Project: Calcite
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 1.21.0
> Reporter: Danny Chen
> Assignee: Danny Chen
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.22.0
>
>
> The TableScanRule is the only planner rule that for a logical node(e.g. the
> table scan), its function is to pass along the cluster object and invoke the
> RelOptTable#toRel which is very trivial because it supplies only a simple
> ToRelContext that does not support expanding view/passing table hints.
> For rels that come from the sql-to-rel conversion, there is already a table
> conversion logic[1]. This code gives a more powerful ToRelContext that has
> the complete functionality.
> The only reason that I saw the meaning of existing TableScanRule is for the
> TableScan that comes from the RelBuilder#scan.
> So I would suggest to deprecate the TableScanRule, instead, we support
> translating the table directly in RelBuilder#scan,
> We also add a new interface RelBuilder#scan(Iterable<String> tableNames,
> ToRelContext context), so that user can pass in a more powerful ToRelContext
> explicitly.
