getType()
The getType() method is mandatory and indicates the type (UDSF, UDTF, or UDAF) of the UDX.
The getType() method must return one of the following strings:
- "udsf"
- For a user-defined scalar function (UDSF). For compatibility with other database products, the string "udf" is also accepted.
- "udtf"
- For a user-defined table function (UDTF).
- "udaf"
- For a user-defined aggregate function (UDAF). For compatibility with other database products, the string "uda" is also accepted.
Example
function getType()
return "udsf"
end
