Hi,

i'm just in the need to implement a custom StoreFunc which persist tuple's to a database. The mapping between tuple values and table columns is userdefined, so i don't know that when implementing the StoreFunc. So i need to transfer various configuration values from the pig "job" specification to the instantiated StoreFunc. Of cause i can transform all those values to strings and can use the StoreFunc contructor, but seems to me more like a hack.

So i wonder if you planned to introduce a configuration system like hadoop or anything similar?

I found https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-66 which i think expresses the same needs. It is said that https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-32 solves that eventually. Taken a quick look at the patch for PIG-32 it does not seems to resolve PIG-66.
I'm wrong ?

best regards
Johannes
