Allow setting of end-of-record delimiter in PigStorage ------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIG-836 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-836 Project: Pig Issue Type: Improvement Components: impl Reporter: George Mavromatis Fix For: 0.2.0 PigStorage allows overriding the default field delimiter ('\t'), but does not allow overriding the record delimiter ('\n'). It is a valid use case that fields contain new lines, e.g. because they are contents of a document/web page. It is possible for the user to create a custom load/store UDF to achieve that, but that is extra work on the user, many users will have to do it , and that udf would be the exact code duplicate of the PigStorage except for the delimiter. Thus, PigStorage() should allow to configure both field and record separators. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
