sunjincheng commented on FLINK-11449: ------------------------------------- Hi [~dawidwys] thanks for your reply. About CAST defined as an expression different from functioncall is simply to follow the current status, and then a simple conversion can complete RexNode-free, but I think CAST as a functioncall is also reasonable. And I also agree to solve the udx problem in a PR, I will try to prepare for the PR, I will leave a message in the process if I need to discuss!
