stevomitric opened a new pull request, #58655: URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/58655
### What changes were proposed in this pull request? Adds `try_make_time(hour, minute, second)`, the error-safe counterpart of `make_time`: it returns NULL instead of throwing when the fields are out of range. Implemented as a builder that wraps `MakeTime` in `TryEval`, mirroring `try_to_time`. This is a SQL-registry function; the DataFrame/PySpark APIs are left as a follow-up. ### Why are the changes needed? `make_time` throws on invalid input, but there was no `try_` variant, unlike `to_time`/`try_to_time` and `make_timestamp`/`try_make_timestamp`. This closes that gap in the TIME function family (SPARK-57550 umbrella). ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change? Yes, a new SQL function ### How was this patch tested? catalyst `TimeExpressionsSuite` (null-on-invalid), golden cases in `time.sql`, and the regenerated `sql-expression-schema.md` row. ### Was this patch authored or co-authored using generative AI tooling?
