             Summary: Allow user-defined functions to be qualified with 
database name
                 Key: HIVE-6167
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6167
             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';
