Pi Song commented on PIG-126:
-----------------------------
Johannes,
Firstly, thank a lot for helping me track down this problem. Your patch has
helped me scope down the possibilities.
I have found out that in order to refer to a static inner class, we have to say
"OuterClass1$InnerClass2()" as opposed to the intuitive
"OuterClass1.InnerClass2()" (This apparently also happens when you do
instantiate using reflection).
So that in your patch when you use LoadFuncClass.getName(), you get the right
name all the time.
This, therefore, may not be a bug. Though personally I prefer
"OuterClass1.InnerClass2()". Should we make both forms usable?
> custom storage ( LOAD with USING) doesn't work with inner classes
