Benjamin Reed commented on PIG-55:
----------------------------------
I like the idea, I think the PigSplitFactory interface (it should not be under
impl btw) gets too much information. I think the programmer should just get
input and desired number of splits. We should then build splits for Hadoop from
that information. PigSplit is just a glue class (and a rather ugly one at that).
> Allow user control over split creation

> I have a dataset in HDFS that's stored in a file per column that I'd like to
> access from pig. This means I can't use LoadFunc to get at the data as it
> only allows the loader access to a single input stream at a time. To handle
> this usage, I've broken the existing split creation code out into a few
> classes and interfaces, and allowed user specified load functions to be used
> in place of the existing code.
