<p>
In <keyword keyref="impala29_full"/> and higher, you can run the <codeph>REFRESH
FUNCTIONS</codeph> statement to refresh the user-defined functions (UDFs) created outside
of Impala. For example, you can add Java-based UDFs to the metastore database through the
Hive <codeph>CREATE FUNCTION</codeph> statements and make those UDFs visible to Impala at
the database level by subsequently running <codeph>REFRESH FUNCTIONS</codeph>.
</p>
<p>
The <codeph>REFRESH FUNCTIONS</codeph> statement is only required if you create or modify
UDFs from outside of Impala. Updated metadata, as a result of running <codeph>REFRESH
FUNCTIONS</codeph>, is broadcast to all Impala coordinators.
</p>
<p>
Once issued, the <codeph>REFRESH FUNCTIONS</codeph> statement cannot be cancelled.
