[ https://issues.redhat.com/browse/TEIID-5973?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-5973: --------------------------------------- It will already return the number of seconds. Yes that needs to be corrected. The function metadata is being inferred from the method, but the return type was left as object. A workaroud is to add a cast: SELECT cast(EPOCH(NOW()) as double) / 1000; > wrong type info for EPOCH return value > -------------------------------------- > > Key: TEIID-5973 > URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/TEIID-5973 > Project: Teiid > Issue Type: Enhancement > Affects Versions: 14.0 > Reporter: Ken Geis > Assignee: Steven Hawkins > Priority: Major > > The documentation states that EPOCH(..) and EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM ..) return double. I should be able to perform calculations on those. For example, I should be able to find the number of seconds since the epoch with > {code:sql} > SELECT EPOCH(NOW()) / 1000; > {code} > {noformat} > TEIID30070 The function '(EPOCH(NOW()) / 1000)' is a valid function form, but the arguments do not match a known type signature and cannot be converted using implicit type conversions.{noformat} >   -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v7.13.8#713008)
