public abstract class AbstractGenericUDAFResolver
extends Object
implements GenericUDAFResolver2

An abstract class to help facilitate existing implementations of GenericUDAFResolver to migrate towards the newly introduced interface GenericUDAFResolver2. This class provides a default implementation of this new API and in turn calls the existing API GenericUDAFResolver.getEvaluator(TypeInfo[]) by ignoring the extra parameter information available via the GenericUDAFParameterInfo interface.

Method Detail

getEvaluator

public GenericUDAFEvaluator getEvaluator(GenericUDAFParameterInfo info)
                                  throws SemanticException

Description copied from interface: GenericUDAFResolver2

Get the evaluator for the parameter types. The reason that this function returns an object instead of a class is because it is possible that the object needs some configuration (that can be serialized). In that case the class of the object has to implement the Serializable interface. At execution time, we will deserialize the object from the plan and use it to evaluate the aggregations.

If the class of the object does not implement Serializable, then we will create a new instance of the class at execution time.

Specified by:

getEvaluator in interface GenericUDAFResolver2

Parameters:

info - The parameter information that is applicable to the UDAF being invoked.

Throws:

SemanticException

getEvaluator

public GenericUDAFEvaluator getEvaluator(TypeInfo[] info)

Parameters:

info - The types of the parameters. We need the type information to know which evaluator class to use.

Throws:
