Namit Jain commented on HIVE-894: --------------------------------- Instead of adding in contrib, can you add it in ql - add it in FunctionRegistry also - that way it will be available to everyone. Note that all files need the standard apache header - you can copy it from any file. Also, can you share some code in UDAFMaxN and UDAFMinN. Add a test which does describe max_n/min_n and describe extended max_n/min_n. > add udaf max_n, min_n to contrib > -------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-894 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-894 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Zheng Shao > Attachments: HIVE-894.1.patch > > > These 2 UDAFs should return the max n numbers, min n numbers in order. > {code} > SELECT max_n(userid, 3) FROM src; > [999,997,996] > SELECT max_n(userid, 3)[1] FROM src; > 997 > SELECT min_n(userid, 3) FROM src; > [0, 3, 8] > SELECT min_n(userid, 3)[2] FROM src; > 8 > {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
