Alan Gates updated PIG-476:
---------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed
        Status: Resolved  (was: Patch Available)

Patch checked in.  I took the liberty of adding a System.err.println at line 88 
of DateExtractor.java so that if the incomingDateFormat didn't parse an error 
message would be emitted.  Swallowing exceptions is bad because users never 
know what went wrong.  Thanks Earl.

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