Namit Jain commented on HIVE-645:
---------------------------------
It was just a a thought - oracle distinguishes between user defined functions
and procedures.
User defined functions are part of the select list, and procedures are not.
Having said, they are compiled and executed natively. Since we have no plans of
doing it (at least for some time),
we can ignore it.
I just thought do we need to construct where there is no return value.
Other slightly related issue is that there may not be a table: so, should we
have a equivalent of table function.
Raghu has filed a jira for that also - we should think about all of them and
then decide.
The proposed user defined procedures syntax does not take a table name, since
it is not part of select list, which
may be a common scenario.
