Arun C Murthy commented on PIG-94:
----------------------------------
Thanks for the review Pi... comments inline:
bq. In the parser, EXECCOMMAND doesn't seem to accept backtick escape
characters. Do plan to have it or just say backticks aren't allowed?
Yes, the plan to say that backticks aren't allowed.
bq. Agree with Alan to have a timeout mechanism. You already have got the
outputBytes variable in PigExecutableManager. Possibly just use it to monitor
the movement.
Yep, as I noted earlier it's the same problem as with Hadoop Streaming. There
are applications which just collect _all_ of input data before processing it
and in those cases outputBytes isn't useful at all... lets discuss.
bq. The error handling logic by just printing out on work load nodes will not
be visible to Pig user.
The error is also collected on HDFS in the _logs sub-dir of the final output
directory... does that work?
bq. This following line in HadoopExecutableManager will not work on Windows:-
It does work on Cygwin on Windows (which is a pre-req for Hadoop).
