Olga Natkovich updated PIG-112: ------------------------------- Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available) Resolution: Fixed This has been done as part of Pig 0.6.0 release > Allow Java packages to be searched for functions. > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-112 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-112 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Craig Macdonald > Priority: Minor > Attachments: import.v2.patch, import.v3.patch, patch.import > > Original Estimate: 1h > Remaining Estimate: 1h > > Motivation: Why should a user have to supply the fully qualified name to his > user defined function, if all the functions he ever uses are in a pre-defined > list of packages? > Currently PigContext has a list of Java packages that are searched for > functions. Currently the list consists of the following > packages: > * org.apache.pig.builtin. > * org.apache.pig.impl.builtin. > * com.yahoo.pig.yst.sds.ULT. > Users should be able to add to this packagelist. > Example in Grunt: > {noformat} > include com.pig.function.package. > {noformat} > This has connections to imports in Java classes, namespaces in XQuery, and > the PATH env var in shell scripting. > Should be trivial to implement, or could be a property. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
