Julian Hyde commented on CALCITE-1793: -------------------------------------- [~chris-baynes], Let's continue discussion in this JIRA case. Hopefully you saw my design hints on the mail thread. They're only hints, and I can't say with absolute certainty that I am not sending you down the wrong path. So, if it's not making sense please holler. > Allow RelBuilder to make calls to EXTRACT > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: CALCITE-1793 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-1793 > Project: Calcite > Issue Type: Bug > Components: core > Affects Versions: 1.11.0, 1.12.0 > Reporter: Chris Baynes > Assignee: Julian Hyde > Priority: Minor > > EXTRACT_DATE was originally intended to be an internal function, always > created by translating a call to EXTRACT. > Currently this makes the EXTRACT_DATE function rather awkward to use: > {code} > SqlOperator op = new SqlSpecialOperator("EXTRACT_DATE", SqlKind.EXTRACT, 2, > true, ReturnTypes.INTEGER, null, null); > builder.call(op, builder.getRexBuilder().makeFlag(TimeUnitRange.YEAR), > builder.field(1, 0, "my_date")); > {code} > [~julianhyde] suggests calling EXTRACT directly and then have RelBuilder > invoke a convertlet to translate into calls to EXTRACT_DATE or date-time > arithmetic. > Mailing list discussion: > [http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/calcite-dev/201705.mbox/%3CCAPSgeET9OVWkvGsGXAezqhqP3Zd2dmXxs0k-J92WZM32%2BMq3kw%40mail.gmail.com%3E] -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
