Key: PIG-742 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-742 Project: Pig Issue Type: Wish Components: grunt Affects Versions: 0.1.0 Reporter: Viraj Bhat Priority: Minor Fix For: 0.1.0 The following Pig statements generate an error if there is no space between A and "=" {code} A=load 'quf.txt' using PigStorage() as (q, u, f:long); B = group A by (q); C = foreach B { F = order A by f desc; generate F; }; describe C; dump C; {code} 2009-03-31 17:14:15,959 [main] ERROR org.apache.pig.tools.grunt.Grunt - ERROR 1000: Error during parsing. Encountered " <PATH> "A=load "" at line 1, column 1. Was expecting one of: <EOF> "cat" ... "cd" ... "cp" ... "copyFromLocal" ... "copyToLocal" ... "dump" ... "describe" ... "aliases" ...

It would be nice if the parser would not expect these space requirements between an alias and "=" -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
