> Support comma separated file/directory names in load statements
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PIG-1071
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1071
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Richard Ding
> Assignee: Richard Ding
>
> Currently Pig Latin support following LOAD syntax:
> {code}
> LOAD 'data' [USING loader function] [AS schema];
> {code}
> where data is the name of the file or directory, including files specified
> with Hadoop-supported globing syntax. This name is passed to the loader
> function.
> This feature is to support loaders that can load multiple files from
> different directories and allows users to pass in the file names in a comma
> separated string.
> For example, these will be valid load statements:
> {code}
> LOAD '/usr/pig/test1/a,/usr/pig/test2/b' USING someloader()';
> {code}
> and
> {code}
> LOAD '/usr/pig/test1/{a,c},/usr/pig/test2/b' USING someloader();
> {code}
> This comma separated string is passed to the loader.
