Harsh J commented on PIG-2455: ------------------------------ Nope, that works just fine! And sorry for not searching deep. I looked for the VersionInfo class, thinking it'd be standard across, but didn't find one and hence reported this. PIG-2380 works for me. Thanks again! > Need a way to get Pig's version programmatically. > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-2455 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2455 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Wish > Components: build > Affects Versions: 0.9.0 > Reporter: Harsh J > Priority: Minor > Labels: newbie > > There seems to be no API in Apache Pig that provides back a version string, > or anything of that sort. For Apache Hadoop and HBase, we have VersionInfo > classes doing this. > I'm up for providing a patch if you guys feel this is worth maintaining > (you'd need to maintain a package-info.java with some strings, as you change > versions/revisions, I can look at how hadoop maintains this and help). > I came across this thought while trying to think of an easy way around > OOZIE-623. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
