A UDF has no state. Or rather, it SHOULD have no state. There are no guarantees that the UDF instance is preserved from one call to the next. It gets initialized, but you can't count on storing information in them and then retrieving it, as that would then end up exposing state across backtracking, etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
