Hi Jinfeng, 1.If the parquet files are generated with Drill after Drill-4203 these files have "isDateCorrect = true" property. Drill serializes this property from metadata now. When we set this property in the first constructor we will hide the value from metadata. IsDateCorrect will be false only if this value equals to the false (no case for it now) or absent in parquet metadata footer.
2. I'm not sure the reason to change isDateCorrect metadata property when the user disable dates correction. If you have some use case it would be great if you provide it. 3. Maybe you are right regarding to when Parquet metadata is cloned. Here I added the property in the same manner as Jason's new property "drillVersion. So need it a separate unit test?
