Description
For non-generic UDFs, java reflection is used to determine which evaluate() is to be used for given input expressions. For this, method's argument type is matched against the expression's type. Currently a match exists only if the two types are exactly the same. However, for decimal with precision/and scale, we need to improve the matching, such that a method with decimal arugment should be picked for an input with, say, decimal(5,2).
