tsreaper opened a new pull request #16619: URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/16619
(This PR is cherry-picked from #16462.) ## What is the purpose of the change Currently when comparing temporal type with invalid string literal, NullPointerException will be thrown as we'll first cast the string literal to the desired temporal type, resulting in a null value. This PR fixes this issue. In this PR, when the string literal is not in a valid date/time/timestamp format, an exception with message "String xxx is not a valid date/time/timestamp" will be thrown, otherwise the comparison code will be generated as normal. The comparison result will be null if either operand is null, and will be true/false if both operands are not null. ## Brief change log - Fix NullPointerException when comparing temporal type with invalid string literal ## Verifying this change This change added tests and can be verified by running the added tests. ## Does this pull request potentially affect one of the following parts: - Dependencies (does it add or upgrade a dependency): no - The public API, i.e., is any changed class annotated with `@Public(Evolving)`: no - The serializers: no - The runtime per-record code paths (performance sensitive): no - Anything that affects deployment or recovery: JobManager (and its components), Checkpointing, Kubernetes/Yarn, ZooKeeper: no - The S3 file system connector: no ## Documentation - Does this pull request introduce a new feature? no - If yes, how is the feature documented? not applicable -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
