Alan Gates commented on PIG-81:
-------------------------------
I agree that the accessor methods don't follow any observable naming
convention. However, as part of the types work DataAtom is going away, to be
replaced by java native objects (Integer, String, etc.) (see
http://wiki.apache.org/pig/PigTypesFunctionalSpec and
http://wiki.apache.org/pig/PigTypesDesign). So let's not spend time changing
the names.
> inconsistent named methods in DataAtom
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: PIG-81
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-81
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: data
> Reporter: Johannes Zillmann
> Priority: Trivial
>
> The getters for the various typs in DataAtom are named in an inconsitently
> way.
> There are f.e.
> longVal()
> numval()
> strval()
> Personally i would favor the style of the field names. (stringVal, doubleVal,
> etc.. instead of strVal, numVal).
