UDF defined with argument causes class instantiation exception --------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIG-552 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-552 Project: Pig Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: types_branch Reporter: Christopher Olston I'm doing: define myFunc myFunc('blah'); b = foreach a generate myFunc(*); Pig parses it, but fails when it tries to run it on hadoop (I'm using "local" mode). It tries to invoke the class loader on "myFunc('blah')" instead of on "myFunc", which causes an exception. The bug seems to stem from this part of JobControlCompiler.getJobConf(): if(mro.UDFs.size()==1){ String compFuncSpec = mro.UDFs.get(0); Class comparator = PigContext.resolveClassName(compFuncSpec); if(ComparisonFunc.class.isAssignableFrom(comparator)) { jobConf.setMapperClass(PigMapReduce.MapWithComparator.class); jobConf.setReducerClass(PigMapReduce.ReduceWithComparator.class); jobConf.set("pig.reduce.package", ObjectSerializer.serialize(pack)); jobConf.set("pig.usercomparator", "true"); jobConf.setOutputKeyClass(NullableTuple.class); jobConf.setOutputKeyComparatorClass(comparator); } } else { jobConf.set("pig.sortOrder", ObjectSerializer.serialize(mro.getSortOrder())); } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
