Timo Walther commented on FLINK-19956: -------------------------------------- Thanks for the research [~jark]. I forgot that we fixed that "recently" for 1.12. To summarize this issue a workaround for 1.11 is: {code} val column = "f0" table.filter($"$column" === true) {code} In 1.11 the $() method was not available in Scala. > $ does not work on variables without being qualified in Scala > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-19956 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-19956 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Table SQL / API > Affects Versions: 1.11.2 > Environment: MacOS > Reporter: Rex Remind > Priority: Minor > > This does not compile: > {code:java} > val columnName = "bool_column" > table.filter($(column) === true) {code} > > {color:#333333}This does:{color} > {code:java} > val columnName = "bool_column" > table.filter(Expressions.$(column) === true) {code} > > {color:#333333}There's nothing obviously documented to using the later.{color} -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
