Khurram Faraaz commented on DRILL-5363:
---------------------------------------

Same as CURRENT_DATE, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP also works without open and close 
parentheses.

>             Project: Apache Drill
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Paul Rogers
>
> The [Drill 
> documentation|http://drill.apache.org/docs/date-time-functions-and-arithmetic/]
>  describes a CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() function. Tried the following query:
> {code}
> SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() FROM (VALUES(1))
> {code}
> Got the following errors:
> {code}
> SEVERE: org.apache.calcite.sql.validate.SqlValidatorException: No match found 
> for function signature CURRENT_TIMESTAMP()
> SEVERE: org.apache.calcite.runtime.CalciteContextException: From line 1, 
> column 8 to line 1, column 26: No match found for function signature 
> CURRENT_TIMESTAMP()
> {code}
> Please:
> * Implement the function, or
> * Remove the function from the documentation, or
> * Leave the function in the docs, but add a footnote saying that the function 
> is not yet available.
> Note that Drill provides a {{NOW()}} function which does work and would seem 
> to do exactly the same as the non-existent {{CURRENT_TIMESTAMP()}} function.
