    For the sake of simplicity, is it possible to encapsulate a 
”createSqlFunctions“ method in tablefunciton? 


> Add support for user defined table function in Table API & SQL

>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: New Feature

> Normal user-defined functions, such as concat(), take in a single input row 
> and output a single output row. In contrast, table-generating functions 
> transform a single input row to multiple output rows. It is very useful in 
> some cases, such as look up in HBase by rowkey and return one or more rows.
> Adding a user defined table function should:
> 1. inherit from UDTF class with specific generic type T
> 2. define one or more evel function. 
> NOTE: 
> 1. the eval method must be public and non-static.
> 2. the generic type T is the row type returned by table function. Because of 
> Java type erasure, we can’t extract T from the Iterable.
> 3. use {{collect(T)}} to emit table row
> 4. eval method can be overload. Blink will choose the best match eval method 
> to call according to parameter types and number.
> {code}
> public class Word {
>   public String word;
>   public Integer length;
> }
> public class SplitStringUDTF extends UDTF<Word> {
>     public Iterable<Word> eval(String str) {
>         if (str != null) {
>             for (String s : str.split(",")) {
>                 collect(new Word(s, s.length()));
>             }
>         }
>     }
> }
> // in SQL
> tableEnv.registerFunction("split", new SplitStringUDTF())
> tableEnv.sql("SELECT a, b, t.* FROM MyTable, LATERAL TABLE(split(c)) AS 
> t(w,l)")
> // in Java Table API
> tableEnv.registerFunction("split", new SplitStringUDTF())
> // rename split table columns to “w” and “l”
> table.crossApply("split(c) as (w, l)")        
>      .select("a, b, w, l")
> // without renaming, we will use the origin field names in the POJO/case/...
> table.crossApply("split(c)")
>      .select("a, b, word, length")
> // in Scala Table API
> val split = new SplitStringUDTF()
> table.crossApply(split('c) as ('w, 'l))
>      .select('a, 'b, 'w, 'l)
> // outerApply for outer join to a UDTF
> table.outerApply(split('c))
>      .select('a, 'b, 'word, 'length)
> {code}
> See [1] for more information about UDTF design.
