hailong wang updated FLINK-19362:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
`DOT` operator codegen (ExprCodeGenerator#generateCallExpression) has comment 
as following:
{code:java}
// due to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-2162, expression such as
// "array[1].a.b" won't work now.
if (operands.size > 2) {
  throw new CodeGenException(
    "A DOT operator with more than 2 operands is not supported yet.")
}
{code}
But `array[1].a.b` actually can work for flink job. `DOT` will be transform to 
`RexFieldAccess` for CALCITE-2542CALCITE-2542. And `generateDot` will never be 
invoked  except suppporting ITEM for ROW types.

Simply, I think we can only delete the comment which is confusing.
