Bowen Li commented on FLINK-15595:
----------------------------------

Can you elaborate what you mean by "dropping CoreModule"? 

>From a user's perspective, the purpose of module, at least for now, is to be 
>able to use Hive built-in functions as a complement for Flink's built-in 
>functions. I'm fine with a solution as long as Hive built-in functions still 
>works by loading HiveModule. 

[~lzljs3620320]  maybe you can prototype a PR so everyone can see how much 
changes are required? That may need to change behaviors of SQL CLI and related 
documentation. Thanks!

> First of all, the implementation is problematic. CoreModule returns 
> BuiltinFunctionDefinition, which cannot be resolved in 
> FunctionCatalogOperatorTable, so it will fall back to FlinkSqlOperatorTable.
> Second, the function defined by CoreModule is seriously incomplete. You can 
> compare it with FunctionCatalogOperatorTable, a lot less. This leads to the 
> fact that the priority of some functions is in CoreModule, and the priority 
> of some functions is behind all modules. This is confusing, which is not what 
> we want to define in FLIP-68. 
> We should:
>  * We should resolve BuiltinFunctionDefinition correctly in 
> FunctionCatalogOperatorTable.
>  * CoreModule should contains all functions in FlinkSqlOperatorTable, a 
> simple way could provided calcite wrapper to wrap all functions.
>  * PlannerContext.getBuiltinSqlOperatorTable should not contains 
> FlinkSqlOperatorTable, we should use one 
> FunctionCatalogOperatorTable.Otherwise, there will be a lot of confusion.
