John Gordon commented on PIG-2795:
----------------------------------
Are you running under cygwin or without cygwin? With Cygwin, you might get
cygpaths, which don't have \. Given that pig uses \ as an escape character, a
standard Windows path -- e.g. "C:\newdir\text.txt" would look like this
C:<newline>ewdir<tab>ext.txt -- where newline and tab are visual placeholders
for whitespace characters.
> Fix test cases that generate pig scripts with "load " + pathStr to encode "\"
> in the path

> Pig reads "\" as an escape character in pig scripts -- but Windows paths
> natively contain \. When we formulate pig queries that should be read
> through the parser with file paths, we should call encodeEscape first to
> handle paths generated on Windows.
