Earl Cahill updated PIG-476:
----------------------------

    Attachment: DateExtractor-PIG-476

I moved some javadoc down, and now on parsing failures, we just return, which 
results in an empty string in out.  I also added a test case that tests making 
it past a failed parse.

> given a date that can match a SimpleDateFormat want to be able to extract 
> arbitrary SimpleDateFormat data, like day or year

> Want to be able to do something like
> A = FOREACH raw GENERATE 
> org.apache.pig.piggybank.evaluation.util.apachelogparser.DateExtractor(dayTime,
>  "yyyy", "dd/MMM/yyyy:HH:mm:ss");
> to extract the year, or if your date is formatted as
> dd/MMM/yyyy:HH:mm:ss Z
> you could do something like
> A = FOREACH raw GENERATE 
> org.apache.pig.piggybank.evaluation.util.apachelogparser.DateExtractor(dayTime,
