object SQLContext extends Serializable
This SQLContext object contains utility functions to create a singleton SQLContext instance, or to get the created SQLContext instance.
It also provides utility functions to support preference for threads in multiple sessions scenario, setActive could set a SQLContext for current thread, which will be returned by getOrCreate instead of the global one.

Get the singleton SQLContext if it exists or create a new one using the given SparkContext.
This function can be used to create a singleton SQLContext object that can be shared across the JVM.

Changes the SQLContext that will be returned in this thread and its children when SQLContext.getOrCreate() is called. This can be used to ensure that a given thread receives a SQLContext with an isolated session, instead of the global (first created) context.
