The "Pig070IncompatibleChanges" page has been changed by OlgaN. http://wiki.apache.org/pig/Pig070IncompatibleChanges?action=diff&rev1=21&rev2=22 -------------------------------------------------- With Pig 0.7.0 the read/write functionality is taking over by Hadoop's Input/OutputFormat and how compression is handled or whether it is handled at all depends on the Input/OutputFormat used by the loader/store function. - The main input format that supports compression is TextInputFormat. It supports bzip files with .bz2 extension and gzip files with .gz extension. '''Note that it does not support .bz files'''. PigStorage is the only loader that comes with Pig that is derived from TextInputFormat which means it will be able to handle .bz2 and .gz files. Other laders such as BinStorage will no longer support compression. + The main input format that supports compression is TextInputFormat.

PigStorage is the only loader that comes with Pig that is derived from TextInputFormat which means it will be able to handle .bz2 and .gz files. Other loaders such as BinStorage will no longer support compression. On the store side, TextOutputFormat also supports compression but the store function needs do to additional work to enable it. Again, PigStorage will support compressions while other functions will not.
