---------------------------------
Summary: Change date_add/date_sub/to_date functions to return Date
type rather than String
Key: HIVE-13248
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13248
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: UDF
Reporter: Jason Dere
Assignee: Jason Dere
Some of the original "date" related functions return string values rather than
Date values, because they were created before the Date type existed in Hive. We
can try to change these to return Date in the 2.x line.
Date values should be implicitly convertible to String.
