Phabricator updated HIVE-5204:
------------------------------

    Attachment: HIVE-5204.D12687.1.patch

jdere requested code review of "HIVE-5204 [jira] Change type compatibility 
methods to use PrimitiveCategory rather than TypeInfo".

Reviewers: JIRA

HIVE-5204: Change type compatibility methods to use PrimitiveCategory rather 
than TypeInfo - convert getCommonClass()/etc to use PrimtiveCategory, rather 
than TypeInfo. This allows varchar(10) and varchar(20) to be treated the same. 
- type compatibility for varchar and other types. Ideally should be similar to 
string. - type params need to be set properly for comparison/common types.  For 
example, commonClass(varchar(10), varchar(20)) should be varchar(20). - move 
special case string/date/varchar conversion code out of 
GenericUDFBaseCompare.initialize()

The type compatibility methods in the FunctionRegistry (getCommonClass, 
implicitConvertable) compare TypeInfo objects directly when its doing its type 
compatibility logic. This won't work as well with qualified types (varchar, 
char, decimal), because we will need different TypeInfo objects to represent 
varchar(5) and varchar(10), and the equality comparisons won't work anymore. We 
can change this logic to look at the PrimitiveCategory for the TypeInfo instead.
