    DataTypes in UDF

    rokhmanov

      Hi,

       

      I see some strange behavior with data types in UDF in latest Teiid. I am trying to define a non-pushdown UDF, using this example: https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/TEIID/Support+for+User-Defined+Functions+%28Non-Pushdown%29

      I noticed that example will work on my Teiid 8.1.0.Alpha3-SNAPSHOT when instead of (as described) passing and returning Double to 'celsiusToFahrenheit' method I replace it with BigDecimal in my java class.

       

      My problem is that I want to pass and retrieve String, so I define my UDF this way:

       

                   CREATE VIRTUAL FUNCTION RepTest(testmsg varchar) 
                     RETURNS varchar 
                     OPTIONS (JAVA_CLASS 'com.test.teiid.udf.TestTeiidFunction',  
                          JAVA_METHOD 'test');
      
      

       

      And here is my sample java code:

      package com.test.teiid.udf;
      public class TestTeiidFunction {
      
           public static String test(String testvar)
           {
                return testvar;
           }
      }
      

       

      Here is what I see in logs:

      22:13:22,039 ERROR [org.jboss.threads.executor] (teiid-async-threads - 2) Task execution failed for task org.teiid.jboss.VDBService$6@561a8b04: org.teiid.core.TeiidRuntimeException: TEIID30388 UDF "RepTest(entities testmsg) : entities result" could not loaded, since no method on class "com.test.teiid.udf.TestTeiidFunction" with name "test" has a matching type signature.

      I tried to use 'string' instead of 'varchar' in UDF definition in VDB - the same effect.

          Andriy,

           

          That exact scenario is covered in a unit test.  Running the same scenario against latest I also see the proper behavior.  If you can try what you have above against latest and it doesn't work, then log an issue with your vdb.xml and other artifacts?

            Steve, you was right about the latest.

             

            I found that my Teiid binaries deployed to my local JBoss were two weeks old. After a fresh build from trunk and teiid snapshot reinstallation the issue was resolved.

             

            Thanks,

            Andriy
