Minor Casting from integer types to timestamp treats the source int as being in millis. Casting from timestamp to integer types creates the result in seconds. This leads to behavior like:
scala> sql("select cast(cast (1234 as timestamp) as bigint)").show
+---+
|_c0|
+---+
| 1|
+---+
Double's on the other hand treat it as seconds when casting to and from:
scala> sql("select cast(cast (1234.5 as timestamp) as double)").show
+------+
| _c0|
+------+
|1234.5|
+------+
This also breaks some other functions which return long in seconds, in particular, unix_timestamp.
scala> sql("select cast(unix_timestamp() as timestamp)").show +--------------------+ | _c0| +--------------------+ |1970-01-17 10:03:...| +--------------------+ scala> sql("select cast(unix_timestamp() *1000 as timestamp)").show +--------------------+ | _c0| +--------------------+ |2015-11-12 23:26:...| +--------------------+
