Olga Natkovich commented on PIG-259:
------------------------------------
+1 on passing the information in the constructor. Since we need the store
function to to the validation, we don't have control over the semantics and it
is better not to have constructs in the language whose semantics are not well
defined.
One thing we need to provide to the store function writer is guidence on when
the information they get in the constructor can be acted on.
> allow store to overwrite existing directroy
