Igor Kabiljo commented on HIVE-2470: ------------------------------------ Also, is it intentional that you have to put UDFType annotation for function to be considered as deterministic, even though UDFType.deterministic has default value true? If I see correctly, FunctionRegistry.isDeterministic only looks if given class has that annotation, and not if parent classes have it. UDFType annotation on GenericUDF is basically useless? > Improve support for Constant Object Inspectors > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-2470 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2470 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Jonathan Chang > Assignee: Jonathan Chang > Attachments: HIVE-1360.part2.patch, HIVE-2470.patch > > > ConstantObjectInspectors are nice but they need to be more widely supported > and used.
