>                 Key: SPARK-27881

>             Project: Spark

>    Affects Versions: 3.1.0
>            Reporter: Peter Toth
>            Priority: Minor
>
> SQL:2016 standard supports the following Cast functions
> {noformat}
> CAST(<datetime> AS <char string type> [FORMAT <template>])
> CAST(<char string> AS <datetime type> [FORMAT <template>])
> {noformat}
> to specify patterns to use during cast.
> Oracle DB 18 already supports a similar formatting option during cast: 
> [https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/18/sqlrf/CAST.html]
> There is an initiative in Impala: IMPALA-4018 and Hive HIVE-21575 to support.
>  (Please note that accepting the {{CAST (... FORMAT <pattern>)}} is just one 
> part of these tickets, the other part regarding patterns is covered here: 
> SPARK-27882.)
