xuyangzhong commented on CALCITE-4777:
--------------------------------------
But the CalCite Docs
(+https://calcite.apache.org/docs/reference.html#implicit-type-conversion+)
says converting from decimal to boolean is valid and only needs explicit cast,
which confuses me.

> Actually, the cast simplify operation will enter the function _translateCast_
> in _RexToLixTranslator_.It misses the "case BOOLEAN" and uses the convert in
> EnumUtils. However, because the Decimal's Primitive is null and fromNumber is
> true, the Expression's function named "call" calls the "booleanValue"
> function in "java.math.BigDecimal", which does not actually exist. So the
> exception is thrown.
> I find in SqFunctions, we have a function "toBoolean(Number number)" (which
> seems never to be used?). This function may very fit dealing with this
> question, right?
