Daniel Dai commented on PIG-3445:
---------------------------------

This reminds me a similar ticket for HBase PIG-3285. Not sure packing a bunch 
of jars for a new loader is a good idea. I am not objecting the patch, but 
seems we need a better solution for that in the future.

> We would add the Parquet jar in the Pig packages to make it available out of 
> the box to pig users.
> On top of that we could add the parquet.pig package to the list of packages 
> to search for UDFs. (alternatively, the parquet jar could contain classes 
> name or.apache.pig.builtin.ParquetLoader and ParquetStorer)
> This way users can use Parquet simply by typing:
> A = LOAD 'foo' USING ParquetLoader();
> STORE A INTO 'bar' USING ParquetStorer();
