@PublicEvolving public final class StructuredType extends UserDefinedType
There are two kinds of structured types. Types that are stored in a catalog and are identified
by an ObjectIdentifier or anonymously defined, unregistered types (usually reflectively
extracted) that are identified by an implementation Class.
A structured type can declare a super type and allows single inheritance for more complex type hierarchies, similar to JVM-based languages.
A structured type can be declared final for preventing further inheritance (default
behavior) or not final for allowing subtypes.
A structured type can be declared not instantiable if a more specific type is required
or instantiable if instances can be created from this type (default behavior).
A structured type declares comparision properties of either none (no equality), equals (only equality and inequality), or full (greater, equals, less).
NOTE: Compared to the SQL standard, this class is incomplete. We might add new features such as method declarations in the future. Also ordering is not supported yet.
A structured type can be defined fully logically (e.g. by using a CREATE TYPE DDL).
The implementation class is optional and only used at the edges of the table ecosystem (e.g. when
bridging to a function or connector). Serialization and equality (hashCode/equals) are
handled by the runtime based on the logical type. In other words: hashCode/equals of an
implementation class are not used. Custom equality, casting logic, and further overloaded
operators will be supported once we allow defining methods on structured types.
An implementation class must offer a default constructor with zero arguments or a full
constructor that assigns all attributes. Other physical properties such as the conversion classes
of attributes are defined by a DataType when a structured type is used.

LogicalTypeUse LogicalType.asSerializableString() for a type string that fully serializes this instance.
asSummaryString 在类中 LogicalTypepublic boolean supportsInputConversion(Class<?> clazz)
LogicalTypeA supported conversion directly maps an input class to a logical type without loss of precision or type widening.
For example, java.lang.Long or long can be used as input for BIGINT independent of the set nullability.

LogicalTypeA supported conversion directly maps a logical type to an output class without loss of precision or type widening.
For example, java.lang.Long or long can be used as output for BIGINT if the type is not nullable. If the type is nullable, only java.lang.Long can
represent this.
