godfrey he created FLINK-18180: ---------------------------------- Summary: unify the logic of time attribute derivation for both batch and streaming Key: FLINK-18180 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-18180 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Table SQL / Planner Reporter: godfrey he
Currently, the logic of time attribute derivation is different for batch and streaming. For batch table source, the rowtime type will not be generated or will be erased as regular time type if the source table has rowtime type. To handle this difference, we have to distinguish batch or streaming via {{isStreamingMode}} flag in many places, such as: {{DatabaseCalciteSchema}}, {{CatalogSchemaTable}}, {{CatalogTableSchemaResolver}}, etc. In fact, batch queries may also need rowtime type, such as supporting rowtime temporal join. So we can unify the logic of time attribute derivation from the source side, and erase the rowtime type if need in optimization phase. And then it's easier to push the unified {{TableEnvironment}} and planner forward. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
