URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-6531
Project: Apache Drill
Issue Type: Task
Components: Documentation
Reporter: Bridget Bevens
Assignee: Bridget Bevens
Fix For: 1.14.0
Hi Bridget,
There seems to be an error in the example shown in
https://drill.apache.org/docs/custom-function-interfaces/
Custom Function Interfaces - Apache Drill
drill.apache.org
Implement the Drill interface appropriate for the type of function that you
want to develop. Each interface provides a set of required holders where you
input data types that your function uses and required methods that Drill calls
to perform your function’s operations.
The error is logical, not relating to the main topic (Aggregate Function
Interface), but may slightly confuse anyone carefully reading this doc (like me
☺)
The error is – the red line should come before the brown line:
@Override
public void add() {
if (in.value < min.value) {
min.value = in.value;
secondMin.value = min.value;
}
That is - Should be:
@Override
public void add() {
if (in.value < min.value) {
secondMin.value = min.value;
min.value = in.value;
}
This comes from interpreting the name of the new function (“The second most
minimum”).
While on the subject – looks like the reset() function is also wrong (need to
reset to high numbers, not zero):
@Override
public void reset() {
min.value = 0; è 999999999
secondMin.value = 0; è 999999999
}
Thanks,
Boaz
