[jira] [Commented] (ARROW-14123) [C++] DayTimeIntervalType::DayMilliseconds comparison function seems incorrect
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-14123?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17470819#comment-17470819 ]
Phillip Cloud commented on ARROW-14123:
---------------------------------------
Two problems inherent to this comparison:
1. How should these two intervals compare?
{code}
DayMilliseconds = { days = 1, milliseconds = -1 }
DayMilliseconds = { days = 0, milliseconds = 86399999 }
{code}
2. Are intervals correctly comparable without a time zone? The specific start and end of an interval determines it's length. Without that information there isn't any correct way to compare two interval types.

> The less than operator ({{operator<}}) implemented on {{DayTimeIntervalType::DayMilliseconds}} seems incorrect:
> {code:cpp}
> bool operator<(DayMilliseconds other) const {
> return this->days < other.days || this->milliseconds < other.milliseconds;
> }
> {code}
> With this implementation, an example (in pseudocode) such as
> {code:cpp}
> DayMilliseconds { days = 10, milliseconds = 999 } < DayMilliseconds { days = 9, milliseconds = 1000 }
> {code}
> would return {{true}} when it should return {{false}}.
