Github user wuchong commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2653 Hi @fhueske @twalthr , I have addressed all the comments and made the following changes: 1. Forbid TableFunction implemented by Scala object, since the `collect` is called on a singleton. It will be error-prone in some concurrent cases. 2. Check correct errors if a SQL query refers to a function in FROM that has not been registered or which is a ScalarFunction. 3. Make `TableFunction` and `ScalarFunction` clean, **remove `UserDefinedFunction`**, and move eval relative functions and `createSqlFunction` to utils. 4. Rename `ScalarFunctions` to `SqlFunctions` because contains also TableFunction logic. 5. Restructure tests. Test Java Table API by comparing the RelNode of two tables. And check SQL API's DataSetRel and DataStreamRel via `TableTestBase` utils. The tests reduced into `stream/UserDefinedTableFunctionITCase`, `batch/UserDefinedTableFunctionITCase`, and `stream/UserDefinedTableFunctionTest` , `batch/UserDefinedTableFunctionTest`. 6. Scala Table API implicitly convert `TableFunction` into `TableFunctionCall`. `TableFunctionCall` is not an `Expression` or `LogicalNode`, but is like `GroupWindow`, can be visible to the users (contains API such `as(...)`). 7. Fix the hierarchy type extraction problem. 8. Rebase the code and fix conflicts. 9. ...
