[jira] [Created] (FLINK-7128) Timestamp types in Table API documenation not correct

Shang Yuanchun (Jira)

------------------------------------

             Summary: Timestamp types in Table API documenation not correct
                 Key: FLINK-7128
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7128
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation, Table API & SQL
    Affects Versions: 1.3.1, 1.4.0
            Reporter: Fabian Hueske
            Priority: Minor


The documentation for the Table API shows the type of a timestamp as {{TIMESTAMP}} but it should be {{SQL_TIMESTAMP}}.

The following projection fails
{code}
.select("myLong.cast(TIMESTAMP)")
{code}

with the error message {{"Undefined function: CAST"}} which is confusing because other {{cast}} calls in the same query work correctly. The error message should rather tell the user that the type {{TIMESTAMP}} is unknown.
