Daniel Dai updated PIG-1314:
----------------------------
Description:
Hadoop/Pig are primarily used to parse log data, and most logs have a timestamp
component. Therefore Pig should support dates as a primitive.
Can someone familiar with adding types to pig comment on how hard this is?
We're looking at doing this, rather than use UDFs. Is this a patch that would
be accepted?
This is a candidate project for Google summer of code 2012. More information
about the program can be found at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/PIG/GSoc2012
