> I'm not a committer, but I'd like to suggest the attached patch to handle
> loading hbase rows containing null cell values (since hbase is all about
> sparsly populated data rows). As it stands, a DataByteArray can be created
> with a null mData if a cell has no value, which causes NPEs by simply
> attempting to load a row containing the null cell in question.
> PS: the attached patch also contains a slight change to the bin/pig
> executable to point to the build/pig\-\*\-SNAPSHOT.jar and not the
> build/pig\-\*\-dev.jar (the latter no longer seems to exist). If you prefer a
> separate patch for this, I'll be happy to submit it.
