@Internal
public final class TypeInferenceExtractor
extends Object
```
Reflection-based utility for extracting a TypeInference from a supported subclass of UserDefinedFunction.
The behavior of this utility can be influenced by DataTypeHints and FunctionHints which have higher precedence than the reflective information.
Note: This utility assumes that functions have been validated before regarding accessibility of class/methods and serializability.
