Olga Natkovich commented on PIG-385: ------------------------------------ Pig-538 that I just committed solves adds this functionality. Will keep this bug open till we add a few more test cases. > Should support 'null' as a constant > ----------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-385 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-385 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: impl > Affects Versions: types_branch > Reporter: Alan Gates > Priority: Minor > Fix For: types_branch > > > It would be nice to be able to do things like: > B = foreach A generate $0 > 0 ? $0 : null; > but right now null is not allowed as a constant.
