Haisheng Yuan commented on CALCITE-3786:
----------------------------------------

OK, let me put it in another way. What if my Join and Project operator want to 
customize the digest equal logic?
e.g.
In the default implementation digest equal comparison, we always ignore column 
names, only compare the field types. It is OK for my Project operator. But my 
Join and Filter operator doesn't want to do this, these 2 operators want the 
rowtype to be fully equal, even for column names. Could you please enlighten me 
on how to properly customize it?
Or My operator has some additional field, that participate in the operator 
identity, aka digest comparison, but I don't want to output it in the explain 
terms, is there anyway I can achieve this?

>            Priority: Major

> Current digests for RexNode, RelNode, RelType, and similar cases use String 
> concatenation.
> It is easy to implement, however, it has drawbacks:
> 1) String objects cannot be reused. For instance, RexCall has operands, 
> however, the digest is duplicated. It causes extra memory use and extra CPU 
> for string copying
> 2) There's no way to have multiple #toString() methods. RelType might need 
> multiple digests: "including field names", "excluding field names".
> A suggested resolution might be behind the lines of
> {code:java}
> class Digest { // immutable
>   final int hashCode; // speedup hashCode and equals
>   final Object[] contents; // The values are either other Digest objects or 
> Strings
>   String toString(); // e.g. for debugging purposes
>   int compareTo(Digest); // e.g. for debugging purposes.
> }
> {code}
> Note how fields in Kotlin are aligned much better, and it makes it easier to 
> read:
> {code:java}
> class Digest { // immutable
>   val hashCode: Int // speedup hashCode and equals
>   val contents: Array<Any> // The values are either other Digest objects or 
> Strings
>   fun toString(): String // e.g. for debugging purposes
>   fun compareTo(other: Digest): Int // e.g. for debugging purposes.
> }
> {code}
> Then the digest for RexCall could be the bits relevant to RexCall itself + 
> digests of the operands (which can be reused as is)
