jackylau commented on FLINK-26945: ---------------------------------- hi [~twalthr] , thanks, i know what does the conversionClass means now. it can using conversionClass(bridgedTo) to converter to the java class internal/external of DateType. DataTypes.DATE().notNull().bridgedTo(int.class)` -> it will to external int instead of LocalDatetime (DateType default conversion class). for example String input type, so the cast logical will # StringToDateCast (string -> int) # internal to External (int to int) DataStructureConverter. {code:java} // code placeholder castEvaluator = context.createEvaluator( $("startDate").cast(DataTypes.DATE().notNull()), DataTypes.DATE().notNull(), DataTypes.FIELD("startDate", startDate.notNull().toInternal())); {code} > Add DATE_SUB supported in SQL & Table API > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-26945 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-26945 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Table SQL / API > Reporter: dalongliu > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > Fix For: 1.17.0 > > > Returns the date {{numDays}} before {{{}startDate{}}}. > Syntax: > {code:java} > date_sub(startDate, numDays) {code} > Arguments: > * {{{}startDate{}}}: A DATE expression. > * {{{}numDays{}}}: An INTEGER expression. > Returns: > A DATE. > If {{numDays}} is negative abs(num_days) are added to {{{}startDate{}}}. > If the result date overflows the date range the function raises an error. > Examples: > {code:java} > > SELECT date_sub('2016-07-30', 1); > 2016-07-29 {code} > See more: > * > [Spark|https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-ref-functions-builtin.html#date-and-timestamp-functions] > * [Hive|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/hive/languagemanual+udf] -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
