twalthr opened a new pull request #18107: URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/18107
## What is the purpose of the change This reworks how we handle symbols throughout the stack. It removes the need for a conversion class and align the behavior with Calcite's representation of symbols. Even though we change a `@PublicEvolving` class this should have little impact for users as this type is not exposed through the API. ## Brief change log - Simplify `SymbolType` - Remove usages of `RAW` type for symbols. ## Verifying this change This change is already covered by existing tests, such as *(please describe tests)*. ## Does this pull request potentially affect one of the following parts: - Dependencies (does it add or upgrade a dependency): no - The public API, i.e., is any changed class annotated with `@Public(Evolving)`: yes - The serializers: no - The runtime per-record code paths (performance sensitive): no - Anything that affects deployment or recovery: JobManager (and its components), Checkpointing, Kubernetes/Yarn, ZooKeeper: no - The S3 file system connector: no ## Documentation - Does this pull request introduce a new feature? no - If yes, how is the feature documented?
