for any simple UDF there is no requiement of using any mandatory functions. But yes when you go for an lukup or any adv UDF u need to have the packages imported.

there are no mandatory functions for UDF. But you need to implement the two mandatory methods for Java Mappings (setParameter(), execute()) if this is what you are looking for.

But for the UDF there are no mandatory functions and you'll have java.lang, java.io, java.reflect packages imported by default.

Hi Kobby,

The following packages are imported by default

java.lang.*

java.util.*

java.io.*

java.lang.reflect.*

Wht do u mean by mandatory functions. Thr r no such mandatoru func to be used in a UDF. The UDF is a normal function which contains a java code.
