Bhooshan Mogal updated PIG-3441:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: PIG-3441.patch

Attaching a patch that allows users to specify if they want Pig to read 
parameters from default resources in Configuration objects. With this patch, 
users can enable default resources by setting the parameter 
pig.load.default.resources to true. It is set to false by default.

Please review. 

I have currently added unit tests in the TestHExecutionEngine.java class. 
Please let me know there is a better place to add these tests.

> Pig currently ignores parameters from configuration files added statically to 
> Configuration objects as Configuration.addDefaultResource(filename.xml).
> Consider the following scenario -
> In a hadoop FileSystem driver for a non-HDFS filesystem you load properties 
> specific to that FileSystem in a static initializer block in the class that 
> extends org.apache.hadoop.fs.Filesystem for your FileSystem like below - 
> {code}
> class MyFileSystem extends FileSystem {
>         static {
>               Configuration.addDefaultResource("myfs-default.xml");
>               Configuration.addDefaultResource("myfs-site.xml");
>       }
> }
> {code}
> Interfaces like the Hadoop CLI, Hive, Hadoop M/R can find configuration 
> parameters defined in these configuration files as long as they are on the 
> classpath.
> However, Pig cannot find parameters from these files, because it ignores 
> configuration files added statically.
> Pig should allow users to specify if they would like pig to read parameters 
> from resources loaded statically.
