                 Key: PIG-1303
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1303
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.6.0
         Environment: pig 0.6.0 on a fedora linux machine, jdk 1.6 u11
            Reporter: Johannes Rußek


I'm unable to set the format of the outgoing date string in the constructor as 
it's supposed to work. 
The only way i could change the format was to change the default in the java 
class and rebuild piggybank.
Apparently this has something to do with the way pig instantiates 
DateExtractor, quoting a replier on the mailing list:

David Vrensk said:

I ran into the same problem a couple of weeks ago, and
played around with the code inserting some print/log statements.  It turns
out that the arguments are only used in the initial constructor calls, when
the pig process is starting, but once pig reaches the point where it would
use the udf, it creates new DateExtractors without passing the arguments.
