Robert Stupp commented on CASSANDRA-7395: ----------------------------------------- What about some "operator" functionality to UDF : {{+ - / * !}} : {{SELECT tab.text + ' = ' tab.num FROM foobar}} ? For example to let a UDF evaluate arithmetics or string concatenation etc What about - let's say - "function chaining" : {{SELECT Math.sin ( Math.cos ( val ) ) FROM foobar}} ? I think this requires some additions to {{Cql.g}} > Support for pure user-defined functions (UDF) > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-7395 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7395 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: API, Core > Reporter: Jonathan Ellis > Fix For: 3.0 > > Attachments: 7395.diff > > > We have some tickets for various aspects of UDF (CASSANDRA-4914, > CASSANDRA-5970, CASSANDRA-4998) but they all suffer from various degrees of > ocean-boiling. > Let's start with something simple: allowing pure user-defined functions in > the SELECT clause of a CQL query. That's it. > By "pure" I mean, must depend only on the input parameters. No side effects. > No exposure to C* internals. Column values in, result out. > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pure_function -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
