Pradeep Kamath updated PIG-1323:
--------------------------------
Attachment: PIG-1323.patch
Attached patch addresses the issue in the description by setting state in the
Configuration depending on where in PigInputFormat the LoadFunc.setLocation()
method is called. No tests are includes since testing this in a unit test
framework is not feasible - I have manually tested this.
> Communicate whether the call to LoadFunc.setLocation is being made in
> hadoop's front end or backend

> Loaders which interact with external systems like a metadata server may need
> to know if the LoadFunc.setLocation call happens from the frontend (on the
> client machine) or in the backend (on each map task). The Configuration in
> the Job argument to setLocation() can contain this information.
