pub fn exprlist_to_fields<'a>(
exprs: impl IntoIterator<Item = &'a Expr>,
plan: &LogicalPlan,
) -> Result<Vec<(Option<TableReference>, Arc<Field>)>>Expand description
Create schema fields from an expression list, for use in result set schema construction
This function converts a list of expressions into a list of complete schema fields, making comprehensive determinations about each field’s properties including:
- Data type: Resolved based on expression type and input schema context
- Nullability: Determined by expression-specific nullability rules
- Metadata: Computed based on expression type (preserving, merging, or generating new metadata)
- Table reference scoping: Establishing proper qualified field references
Each expression is converted to a field by calling Expr::to_field, which performs
the complete field resolution process for all field properties.
§Returns
A Result containing a vector of (Option<TableReference>, Arc<Field>) tuples,
where each Field contains complete schema information (type, nullability, metadata)
and proper table reference scoping for the corresponding expression.
