How does the release process work for this library? |
I'm embarrassed to say that I don't really know anymore. @Dandandan released a version more recently than me so maybe he or @maxcountryman can help with that. |
|
@andygrove I think we can let you off the hook for not knowing given the work you have done building DataFusion and Ballista 😁 |
|
thanks a lot, I will have a look at this PR later. |
|
Thanks @Dandandan |
|
Happy to help with a release. As @Dandandan mentioned, it should be automated once we've pushed a tag. |
|
@Dandandan are you able to review and hopefully release? This will allow us to add the CastOptions apache/arrow#9682 to DataFusion - hopefully before the next major release. |

I am wondering, why the choice TryCast / try_cast?
I know bigquery uses SAFE_CAST https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/standard-sql/functions-and-operators#safe_casting
It would make sense to support both maybe?

I could easily change this to add SAFE_CAST too. There was some rationale discussed here: apache/arrow#9682 (comment)
basically it was just that I think SQL Server got there first with TRY_CAST

Hi @andygrove
This change adds the TRY_CAST alongside CAST so that the choice on how to handle data casting errors can be differentiated.
See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/functions/try-cast-transact-sql?view=sql-server-ver15
Also fixed a clippy error that must have been added recently.
