[jira] [Created] (FLINK-4825) Implement a RexExecutor that uses Flink's code generation

[Shang Yuanchun (Jira)]

Timo Walther created FLINK-4825:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Implement a RexExecutor that uses Flink's code generation
                 Key: FLINK-4825
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4825
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Table API & SQL
            Reporter: Timo Walther


The added {{ReduceExpressionRule}} leads to inconsistent behavior. Because some parts of an expression are evalutated using Flink's code generation and some parts use Calcite's code generation.

A very easy example: boolean expressions casted to string are represented as "TRUE/FALSE" using Calcite and "true/false" using Flink.

I propose to implement the RexExecutor interface and forward the calls to Flink's code generation. Additional improvements in order to be more standard compliant could be solved in new Jira issues.
