Hi Folks, While working with Pig it came to my mind that that currently there's no way to call Pig Latin set of commands or a script from Java code and receive results directly into Java. Or, maybe there's such way, but I missed one - I'm newbie.
I think having such functionality is as natural as having JDBC\ODBC drivers to be able to execute SQL from the code and receive results in the code. It might be beneficial for some systems that anticipate script execution time to be reasonably short and script execution outcome to be reasonably concise and predictable. Anyways, I implemented something relatively simple in a scope required for my particular task(s). Let me know if such functionality is desired - I'd be happy to contribute. Or, point me to some existing functionality of such sort if I missed one. Regards, Vlad.
