As far as I know the Expression compiler does type checking of its types of the values (i.e the args or the return) and compares NodeInfo.Kind to NodeInfo.Kind. We are attempting to convert the type of the UDF params i.e in the example above MyCustomType to NodeInfo.Kind, since type checking doesn't do Class[_] to NodeInfo.Kind. If we fail to do the conversion (which is what the proposed solution is referencing), we won't even get to the type checking of the param/return value types the expression compiler does. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
