Hi All, I have the below UDF which tries to connect to vertica using JDBC... package com.testudf.udfex; import java.sql.*; import com.vertica.sdk.*; public class TokenFactory extends TransformFunctionFactory{ @Override public void getPrototype(ServerInterface srvInterface, ColumnTypes argTypes,Colum...

All,

did some good amount of reading on hashing and have settled down with the conclusion that re-genrating the hash value with a trial-and-error method is almost impossible (or) in other words, finding a single match for a given set of rows takes lots and lots of time.

Thanks,
Venkat
