Enum SqlDialect

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<SqlDialect>

    @PublicEvolving
    public enum SqlDialect
    extends Enum<SqlDialect>
    Enumeration of valid SQL compatibility modes.

    In most of the cases, the built-in compatibility mode should be sufficient. For some features, i.e. the "INSERT INTO T PARTITION(a='xxx') ..." grammar, you may need to switch to the Hive dialect if required.

    We may introduce other SQL dialects in the future.

    • Enum Constant Detail

      • DEFAULT

        public static final SqlDialect DEFAULT
        Flink's default SQL behavior.
      • HIVE

        public static final SqlDialect HIVE
        SQL dialect that allows some Apache Hive specific grammar.

        Note: We might never support all of the Hive grammar. See the documentation for supported features.

    • Method Detail

      • values

        public static SqlDialect[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
        for (SqlDialect c : SqlDialect.values())
            System.out.println(c);
        
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
      • valueOf

        public static SqlDialect valueOf​(String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        NullPointerException - if the argument is null
