>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-3318
>             Project: Calcite
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: core
>    Affects Versions: 1.20.0
>            Reporter: Soma Mondal
>            Priority: Major
>
> We have a REL which has this information
>  select * from employee where employee_id = cast('12' as float);
> but Calcite removes the CAST from the STRING literal('12' in our case). 
>  select * from employee where employee_id = '12';
> There are dialects which needs explicit casting in the above case and we need to maintain the CAST in our dialect.
> Calcite removes the cast in SqlImplementor's stripCastFromString() method.
> I'm thinking of having the dialect intercept this and decide whether or not to remove the cast.
>  
> I have created a PR [https://github.com/apache/calcite/pull/1437]
