Antonio Piccolboni commented on SPARK-6817:
-------------------------------------------
So I am not sure row-orientation means anything anymore. Could you please point
me to any examples or documentation for "projected rows" and "batching" UDFs?
Sorry I am writing my first few UDFs, I may just need more education. The
mechanism I am using is to extend the org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.UDF and
provide an evaluate method. This is called once for each row. I don't have to
invoke R at every call, but I have to return something, which is used directly
or indirectly to create elements in a new column. Plus, and that may just be
ignorance on my part, I don't know of any method that is invoked when all the
data has been seen or any other way to detect I am on the last record from
evaluate. I don't see how I can batch say 1000 rows and compute without this
information. What happens when I batched the last incomplete batch and the last
call to evaluate happens with no knowledge it's the last one?
