Ian Hellstrom updated DRILL-4507:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
When creating a view that contains the TO_TIMESTAMP() casting function, the 
resulting column does not show up as a TIMESTAMP but rather as data type ANY:

{code}
 CREATE VIEW timestamp_test AS SELECT TO_TIMESTAMP('2008-2-23 12:00:00', 
'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss') FROM (VALUES(1));
DESCRIBE timestamp_test;
{code}

yields:

{code}
+--------------+------------+--------------+
| COLUMN_NAME  | DATA_TYPE  | IS_NULLABLE  |
+--------------+------------+--------------+
| EXPR$0       | ANY        | YES          |
+--------------+------------+--------------+
{code}

The same is true when using SUBSTR, which ought to return strings, but in 
reality shows up as ANY in the description.

When creating a view that contains the {TO_TIMESTAMP()} casting function, the 
resulting column does not show up as a `TIMESTAMP` but rather as `ANY`:

{code}
 CREATE VIEW timestamp_test AS SELECT TO_TIMESTAMP('2008-2-23 12:00:00', 
'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss') FROM (VALUES(1));
DESCRIBE timestamp_test;

The same is true when using `SUBSTR`, which ought to return strings, but in 
reality shows up as `ANY` in the description.
