The function mapping definition usr_AllPairsShortestPath specifies variables for input tables and parameters.

CREATE FUNCTION MAPPING usr_AllPairsShortestPath
FOR AllPairsShortestPath SERVER TD_SERVER_DB.coprocessor
USING
vertices(vertex) IN TABLE ,
edges(edge) IN TABLE ,
sources(source) IN TABLE ,
targets(trgt) IN TABLE ,
TargetKey(GroupColumn) ,
EdgeWeight('calls') ,
MaxDistance(Distance) ,
Directed ,GroupSize ,SequenceInputBy;

The SELECT statement specifies values for the variables Distance and GroupColumn.

SELECT * FROM usr_AllPairsShortestPath (
ON callers AS vertices PARTITION BY callerid
ON calls AS edges PARTITION BY callerfrom
USING
GroupColumn ('callerto')
Distance ('-1')
) as dt ORDER BY source, target;

Upon submittal, the query is rewritten as follows. Per the mapping definition, TargetKey is substituted for GroupColumnquery and MaxDistance is substituted for Distance. EdgeWeight is also included because the mapping definition specifies a default value for this parameter.

SELECT * FROM AllPairsShortestPath (
ON callers AS vertices PARTITION BY callerid
ON calls AS edges PARTITION BY callerfrom
TargetKey ('callerto')
EdgeWeight ('calls')
MaxDistance ('-1')
) ORDER BY source, target;
