Tom White commented on HADOOP-4070:
-----------------------------------

Thanks for all your feedback. I'm working on a test case.

The reason I called it AdminWork was because I was following the terminology 
used in MySQL. "DDLWork" and "DDLFunctionsWork" don't sound right as function 
creation is not really a part of DDL. I can rename it something more specific - 
CreateFunctionWork?

I agree that it would be good to make the mapping persistent, and add drop and 
rename, but these can be done in later Jiras.

The reason for that code was that user could specify the list of auxiliary jars 
in hive-default.xml (and also by setting the hive.aux.jars.path in hive command 
line client as a session variable). In which case GenericOptionsParser code 
doesn't work. I think appending 'file://' is new to 19.

Not sure about that, but HADOOP-3743 certainly changed things in that area. The 
problem is that if you set the variable HIVE_AUX_JARS_PATH to say /foo then the 
session variable hive.aux.jars.path is set to /foo by the hive script, rather 
than file:///foo. So I've been overriding this by redefining the session 
variable at the moment. What's the best way of fixing this?

> UDFs (user defined functions) in Hive are currently actually built-in 
> functions. This issue is to develop a packaging and registration mechanism so 
> users can add their own functions at runtime.
