Jonathan Coveney created PIG-3014:
-------------------------------------
Summary: CurrentTime() UDF has undesirable characteristics
Key: PIG-3014
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-3014
Project: Pig
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Jonathan Coveney
As part of the explanation of the new DateTime datatype I noticed that we had
added a CurrentTime() UDF. The issue with this UDF is that it returns the
current time _of every exec invocation_, which can lead to confusing results.
In PIG-1431 I proposed a way such that every instance of the same NOW() will
return the same time, which I think is better. Would enjoy thoughts.
