[jira] [Updated] (DRILL-3516) UDF documentation doesn't get people
where they need to be

Jacques Nadeau updated DRILL-3516:
----------------------------------
Description:
Some users are finding the documentation at http://drill.apache.org/docs/develop-custom-functions/ incomplete. A pertinent thread:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/drill-user/201507.mbox/%3CCACAwhF%3DBxs-bXNdrm0pNJ4e8hZiaueqtZMhJ%3DRiBpf%3Dt%3DzEOWA%40mail.gmail.com%3E
was:
The UDF documentation on the web side rooted at http://drill.apache.org/docs/develop-custom-functions/ does not describe the high level process for how UDF's are used, nor does it describe why simple things like toString can't work on *Holder data structures.
This leads to huge confusion and frustration on the part of potentially contributors.
Here are some pertinent threads:
