Dong Jiang created SPARK-23549:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Spark SQL unexpected behavior when comparing timestamp to date
                 Key: SPARK-23549
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-23549
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 2.2.1
            Reporter: Dong Jiang


{code:java}
scala> spark.version

res1: String = 2.2.1

scala> spark.sql("select cast('2017-03-01 00:00:00' as timestamp) between cast('2017-02-28' as date) and cast('2017-03-01' as date)").show


+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

|((CAST(CAST(2017-03-01 00:00:00 AS TIMESTAMP) AS STRING) >= CAST(CAST(2017-02-28 AS DATE) AS STRING)) AND (CAST(CAST(2017-03-01 00:00:00 AS TIMESTAMP) AS STRING) <= CAST(CAST(2017-03-01 AS DATE) AS STRING)))|

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

|                                                                                                                                                                                                          false|

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+{code}
As shown above, when a timestamp is compared to date in SparkSQL, both timestamp and date are downcast to string, and leading to unexpected result. If run the same SQL in presto/Athena, I got the expected result
{code:java}
select cast('2017-03-01 00:00:00' as timestamp) between cast('2017-02-28' as date) and cast('2017-03-01' as date)
