I'm trying to set useMatches=false in REGEX_EXTRACT_ALL as per the javadoc: http://pig.apache.org/docs/r0.11.0/api/org/apache/pig/builtin/REGEX_EXTRACT_ALL.html (and yes, I'm using pig 0.11).
But it doesn't work. I'm concerned about this post: http://grokbase.com/t/pig/user/12b891a55k/boolean-pig-udf-constructor I can only hope this comment only applies to Pig <= 0.11.... otherwise it's just cruel to have features impossible to use! (FWIW, I'll write a UDF that wraps REGEX_EXTRACT_ALL with a string argument, but that's pretty gross...) will
