Sun Rui commented on SPARK-10903:
---------------------------------

There are a number of functions defined in SQLContext.R taking a sqlContext 
instance as its first argument. Instead of removing the first argument from 
these functions, I'd rather we can allow both cases (that is the sqlContext 
parameter is passed or not passed) in these functions, for backward 
compatibility.

> Make sqlContext global

> Make sqlContext global so that we don't have to always specify it.
> e.g. createDataFrame(iris) instead of createDataFrame(sqlContext, iris)
