desmondcheongzx opened a new pull request, #38750: URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/38750
### What changes were proposed in this pull request? Refactor case matching for Spark types by introducing physical types. Since multiple logical types match to the same physical type (for e.g. `DateType` and `YearMonthIntervalType` are both implemented using an integer), we can case match on their physical types rather than listing all possible logical types. ### Why are the changes needed? These changes simplify the Spark type system. ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change? No. ### How was this patch tested? Since this code is a refactor of existing code, we rely on existing tests. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
