Jason Dere commented on HIVE-6047: ---------------------------------- Thanks for the feedback. 1. Yeah, will provide some design details. Still need to think though some of this. 2. Definitely will be metastore changes - will provide those as part of the design details. 3. I wasn't aware of any CREATE FUNCTION spec in the SQL standard .. is there one? 4. True, the db name ends up being more of a namespace, but I was under the impression that Hive databases were more like a schema name. Even if a user has specified "use database A", are they still able to select/join data from a table in another database? I thought this was the case. 5. Do you mean it should read "Sets of JARs/files/archives can be saved .."? Sure, will fix. 6. If we are able to create them using a database name, then yes it would make sense to be able to specify the DB name to get the jar/file/archive sets for that database. Without a db name, then I guess it would default to the current database. > Permanent UDFs in Hive > ---------------------- > > Key: HIVE-6047 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6047 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: UDF > Reporter: Jason Dere > Assignee: Jason Dere > Attachments: PermanentFunctionsinHive.pdf > > > Currently Hive only supports temporary UDFs which must be re-registered when > starting up a Hive session.
