Class LogicalTypeParser

java.lang.Object

org.apache.flink.table.types.logical.utils.LogicalTypeParser

@PublicEvolving
public final class LogicalTypeParser
extends Object

Parser for creating instances of LogicalType from a serialized string created with LogicalType.asSerializableString().

In addition to the serializable string representations, this parser also supports common shortcuts for certain types. This includes:

• STRING as a synonym for VARCHAR(INT_MAX)
• BYTES as a synonym for VARBINARY(INT_MAX)
• NUMERIC and DEC as synonyms for DECIMAL
• INTEGER as a synonym for INT
• DOUBLE PRECISION as a synonym for DOUBLE
• TIME WITHOUT TIME ZONE as a synonym for TIME
• TIMESTAMP WITHOUT TIME ZONE as a synonym for TIMESTAMP
• TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE as a synonym for TIMESTAMP_LTZ
• type ARRAY as a synonym for ARRAY<type>
• type MULTISET as a synonym for MULTISET<type>
• ROW(...) as a synonym for ROW<...>
• type NULL as a synonym for type

Furthermore, it returns UnresolvedUserDefinedType for unknown types (partially or fully qualified such as [catalog].[database].[type]).
