Provide a more flexible data format to load complex field (bag/tuple/map) in PigStorage ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIG-1271 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1271 Project: Pig Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 0.7.0 Reporter: Daniel Dai Assignee: Daniel Dai With [PIG-613|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-613], we are able to load txt files containing complex data type (map/bag/tuple) according to schema. However, the format of complex data field is very strict. User have to use pre-determined special characters to mark the beginning and end of each field, and those special characters can not be used in the content. The goals of this issue are: 1. Provide a way for user to escape special characters 2. Make it easy for users to customize Utf8StorageConverter when they have their own data format -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
