Class YearMonthIntervalType

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable

    @PublicEvolving
    public final class YearMonthIntervalType
    extends LogicalType
    Logical type for a group of year-month interval types. The type must be parameterized to one of the following resolutions: interval of years, interval of years to months, or interval of months.

    An interval of year-month consists of +years-months with values ranging from -9999-11 to +9999-11. The value representation is the same for all types of resolutions. For example, an interval of months of 50 is always represented in an interval-of-years-to-months format (with default year precision): +04-02.

    The serialized string representation is INTERVAL YEAR(p), INTERVAL YEAR(p) TO MONTH, or INTERVAL MONTH where p is the number of digits of years (=year precision). p must have a value between 1 and 4 (both inclusive). If no year precision is specified, p is equal to 2.

    A conversion from and to int describes the number of months. A conversion from Period ignores the days part.

      • copy

        public LogicalType copy​(boolean isNullable)
        Description copied from class: LogicalType
        Returns a deep copy of this type with possibly different nullability.
        Specified by:
        copy in class LogicalType
        Parameters:
        isNullable - the intended nullability of the copied type
        Returns:
        a deep copy
      • asSerializableString

        public String asSerializableString()
        Description copied from class: LogicalType
        Returns a string that fully serializes this instance. The serialized string can be used for transmitting or persisting a type.

        See LogicalTypeParser for the reverse operation.

        Specified by:
        asSerializableString in class LogicalType
        Returns:
        detailed string for transmission or persistence
      • supportsInputConversion

        public boolean supportsInputConversion​(Class<?> clazz)
        Description copied from class: LogicalType
        Returns whether an instance of the given class can be represented as a value of this logical type when entering the table ecosystem. This method helps for the interoperability between JVM-based languages and the relational type system.

        A 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.

        Specified by:
        supportsInputConversion in class LogicalType
        Parameters:
        clazz - input class to be converted into this logical type
        Returns:
        flag that indicates if instances of this class can be used as input into the table ecosystem

        LogicalType.getDefaultConversion()
      • supportsOutputConversion

        public boolean supportsOutputConversion​(Class<?> clazz)
        Description copied from class: LogicalType
        Returns whether a value of this logical type can be represented as an instance of the given class when leaving the table ecosystem. This method helps for the interoperability between JVM-based languages and the relational type system.

        A 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.

        Specified by:
        supportsOutputConversion in class LogicalType
        Parameters:
        clazz - output class to be converted from this logical type
        Returns:
        flag that indicates if instances of this class can be used as output from the table ecosystem
