> @sunxiaoguang I have an idea split the support for StringType into another PR. So this PR is good to review and merge. Unfortunately, that would be problematic for functions that accepts both binary and string as parameter, e.g. MD5. Without cast support, those functions work partially only which can surprise users. Since we need to support string eventually, the questions about collation have to be resolved somehow. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
