Rohini Palaniswamy commented on PIG-3038:
-----------------------------------------
bq. Alternative is to have credential related APIs added to EvalFunc, LoadFunc
and StoreFunc. To deal with backward compatibility in that case, one will have
to do reflection and determine whether the method is implemented or not and
then call it which is not that good.
We went with this approach as we are moving to Java 8 in 0.18 and can do
default methods.
