Description copied from class: SqlOperator

Rewrites a call to this operator. Some operators are implemented as trivial rewrites (e.g. NULLIF becomes CASE). However, we don't do this at createCall time because we want to preserve the original SQL syntax as much as possible; instead, we do this before the call is validated (so the trivial operator doesn't need its own implementation of type derivation methods). The default implementation is to just return the original call without any rewrite.

Overrides:

rewriteCall in class SqlOperator

call - to be rewritten

Returns:

rewritten call
