Dmitriy V. Ryaboy commented on PIG-2506:
----------------------------------------
Not sure I understand the proposed approach. A UDF name maps to a class via
reflection, and Java is case-sensitive. You could take whatever the UDF name is
and lower-case it, matching only lowercased classes, but you'd miss anything
that's camel-cased.
> Change LOWER and UPPER buitins so they respond to the lowercase forms 'lower'
> and 'upper'

> These builtins should respond to lowercase form as well. I am tired of
> writing ugly upper case Pig. My friends make fun of me. My partner says I
> write code just like my Dad's SQL. Cascading fans make fun of my upper case
> L's and P's. I just don't want to write uppercase Pig anymore. I just can't
> do it.
