> Currently, the {{ExistingField}} rowtime extractor only supports {{Long}} and
> {{Timestamp}} fields. To enable other data types (e.g., {{String}}), we can
> provide some system extraction functions and allow users to pass some
> parameters via the constructor of {{ExistingField}}. There's [a simple
> demo|https://github.com/xccui/flink/commit/afcc5f1a0ad92db08294199e61be5df72c1514f8]
> which enables the {{String}} type rowtime by adding a UDF {{str2EventTime}}.
