Summary: Array-Scalar Kernel Usage Improvement
Key: ARROW-16213
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16213
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Sub-task
Reporter: Vibhatha Lakmal Abeykoon
Assignee: Vibhatha Lakmal Abeykoon
When defining UDFs the ability to use a function on both scalar and array with
a single function definition is important. Here using a function just written
for array-like inputs on scalars is a vital component when providing better
support. Further more, UDFs need to be consistent with the pre-registered
functions in the function registry. Considering both usability and consistency,
it is important to support this feature.
This requirement was a part of discussion in Scalar UDF integration PR[1].
