Example

Create a function whose input parameter type is string, the return type is string, and the dynamic library file is libtest_udf.so

CREATE FUNCTION cut2(x string) RETURNS string OPTIONS (FILE = 'libtest_udf.so');

Create a function whose input parameter type is two ints, the return type is int, and the dynamic library file is libtest_udf.so

CREATE FUNCTION add_one(x int, y int) RETURNS INT OPTIONS (FILE = 'libtest_udf.so');

Create an aggregate function whose input parameter type is bigint, the return type is bigint, and the dynamic library file is libtest_udf.so

CREATE AGGREGATE FUNCTION special_sum(x BIGINT) RETURNS BIGINT OPTIONS (FILE = 'libtest_udf.so');

Create an aggregate function whose input parameter type is bigint and nullable, the return type is bigint and nullable, and the dynamic library file is libtest_udf.so

CREATE AGGREGATE FUNCTION count_null(x BIGINT) RETURNS BIGINT OPTIONS (FILE = 'libtest_udf.so', ARG_NULLABLE=true, RETURN_NULLABLE=true);
