MaxGekk opened a new pull request #28582: URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/28582
### What changes were proposed in this pull request? Add new methods that accept date-time Java types to the DateFormatter and TimestampFormatter traits. The methods format input date-time instances to strings: - TimestampFormatter: - `def format(ts: Timestamp): String` - `def format(instant: Instant): String` - DateFormatter: - `def format(date: Date): String` - `def format(localDate: LocalDate): String` ### Why are the changes needed? To avoid unnecessary overhead of converting Java date-time types to micros/days before formatting. Also formatters have to convert input micros/days back to Java types to pass instances to standard library API. ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change? No ### How was this patch tested? By existing tests for toHiveString. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
