-------------------------------------
Summary: Add a string_binary() function to pretty print a
VARBINARY type as VARCHAR
Key: DRILL-1922
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-1922
Project: Apache Drill
Issue Type: Task
Components: Functions - Drill
Reporter: Aditya Kishore
Assignee: Aditya Kishore
Fix For: 0.8.0
Drill has a function {{binary_string()}}, which converts a UTF8 encoded,
[http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/escape|C style HEX escaped strings],
of the form "\Xnn" into a {{VARYBINARY}} type.
This JIRA propose to add a counter function for converting a {{VARYBINARY}}
type into a {{VARCHAR}} type encoded with the same scheme.
