[jira] [Created] (FLINK-15958) Fully support RAW types in the API

Timo Walther created FLINK-15958:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Fully support RAW types in the API
                 Key: FLINK-15958
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-15958
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Table SQL / API, Table SQL / Planner
            Reporter: Timo Walther
            Assignee: Timo Walther


Currently, the Table API does not expose a way of creating RAW types without a {{DataTypeFactory}}. The reason for that is that RAW types need to be resolved at a later stage. This is similar to user-defined types that need to be resolved from the catalog.

A design document will follow as this will require some changes to the main API.

We also need better support in the Blink planner for that.
