                 Key: PIG-562
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-562
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: tools
    Affects Versions: types_branch
            Reporter: Santhosh Srinivasan
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: types_branch


In parameter substitution,  the order of processing order is stated as follows:

Processing Order
   1.  Configuration files are scanned in the order they are specified on the 
command line. Within each file, the parameters are processed in the order they 
are specified.
   2.  Command line parameters are scanned in the order they are specified on 
the command line.

The order needs to be flipped, allowing the use of command line parameters to 
define values for variables declared in parameter files.
