Benjamin Reed commented on PIG-276:
-----------------------------------

Wouldn't it be more efficient and simpler to use

EvalFunction functionForType(byte type); // uses DataType types

It may help avoid extra instantiations of the EvalFunction. It also allows 
programmers to tuck meta information into the object they return.

> Allow UDFs to have different implementations based on input types
