Issue resolved https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/42089
> Cast from string to date and date to string say timezone is needed, but it is
> not used
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-42898
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-42898
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0
> Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans
> Assignee: Robert Joseph Evans
> Priority: Major
>
> This is really minor but SPARK-35581 removed the need for a timezone when
> casting from a `StringType` to a `DateType`, but the patch didn't update the
> `needsTimeZone` function to indicate that it was not longer required.
> Currently Casting from a DateType to a StringType also says that it needs the
> timezone, but it only uses the `DateFormatter` with it's default parameters
> that do not use the time zone at all.
> I think this can be fixed with just a two line change.
