----------------------------------
I could get on board with that approach. Xuefu, does that work for you?

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: UDF
> Reporter: Jason Dere
> Assignee: Jason Dere
>
> Function names in Hive are currently unqualified and there is a single
> namespace for all function names. This task would allow users to define
> temporary UDFs (and eventually permanent UDFs) with a database name, such as:
> CREATE TEMPORARY FUNCTION userdb.myfunc 'myudfclass';
