> The following cases throw
> {{MetaException(message:Filtering is supported only on partition keys of type string)}}
> {noformat}
> sql("create table test (a int) partitioned by (b int) stored as parquet")
> sql("insert into test values (1, 1), (1, 2), (2, 2)")
> // These throw MetaExceptions
> sql("select * from test where b in ('2')").show(false)
> sql("select * from test where cast(b as string) = '2'").show(false)
> sql("select * from test where cast(b as string) in ('2')").show(false)
> sql("select * from test where cast(b as string) in (2)").show(false)
> sql("select cast(b as string) as b from test where b in ('2')").show(false)
> sql("select cast(b as string) as b from test").filter("b = '2'").show(false) // [1]
> sql("select cast(b as string) as b from test").filter("b in (2)").show(false) // [2]
> sql("select cast(b as string) as b from test").filter("b in ('2')").show(false)
> sql("select * from test where cast(b as string) > '1'").show(false)
> sql("select cast(b as string) b from test").filter("b > '1'").show(false) // [3]
> // [1] but not sql("select cast(b as string) as b from test where b = '2'").show(false)
> // [2] but not sql("select cast(b as string) as b from test where b in (2)").show(false)
> // [3] but not sql("select cast(b as string) b from test where b > '1'").show(false)
> {noformat}
> The message ("Filtering is supported only on partition keys of type string") is misleading. Filter *is* supported on integer columns, for example.
