Should support 'null' as a constant
-----------------------------------

                 Key: PIG-385
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-385
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: impl
    Affects Versions: types_branch
            Reporter: Alan Gates
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: types_branch


It would be nice to be able to do things like:

B = foreach A generate $0 > 0 ? $0 : null;

but right now null is not allowed as a constant.  This null constant should be 
allowed anywhere an expression would be, and should be castable (that is 
(int)null).
