Ingo Bürk reassigned FLINK-24399:
---------------------------------
Assignee: Francesco Guardiani
> Make handling of DataType less verbose
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-24399
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-24399
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Table SQL / API
> Reporter: Timo Walther
> Assignee: Francesco Guardiani
> Priority: Major
>
> {{DataType}} is the API abstraction for declaring types and always includes
> the {{LogicalType}} as well. In order to ease the handling of this class, we
> should do the following additions:
> - {{DynamicTableFactory.Context#getPhysicalRowDataType(): DataType}}
> - {{DynamicTableFactory.Context#getPrimaryKeyFields(): int[]}}
> - {{DataType#getFieldNames: List<String>}} (empty for atomics)
> - {{DataType#getFieldDataTypes: List<DataType>}} as a synonym for
> {{getChildren}} (empty for atomics)
> - {{DataType#getFieldCount: int}} (0 for atomics)
> - {{DataType#getProjectedFields(int[][]): DataType}} (like
> {{DataTypeUtils#projectRow}})
> - {{DataType#getProjectedFields(int[]): DataType}} (like
> {{DataTypeUtils#projectRow}})
> This should simplify implementations and avoid needs for internal utilities.
