Xuefu Zhang commented on PIG-1618: ---------------------------------- Patch NewParser-9.patch includes second portion of logical plan generation. Still, work is not complete and subject to subsequent changes. The following is the test-patch run result. The additional javac warnings are due to generated code. Ant test passed. [exec] -1 overall. [exec] [exec] +1 @author. The patch does not contain any @author tags. [exec] [exec] +1 tests included. The patch appears to include 6 new or modified tests. [exec] [exec] +1 javadoc. The javadoc tool did not generate any warning messages. [exec] [exec] -1 javac. The applied patch generated 943 javac compiler warnings (more than the trunk's current 924 warnings). [exec] [exec] +1 findbugs. The patch does not introduce any new Findbugs warnings. [exec] [exec] +1 release audit. The applied patch does not increase the total number of release audit warnings. > Switch to new parser generator technology > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-1618 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1618 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.8.0 > Reporter: Alan Gates > Assignee: Xuefu Zhang > Fix For: 0.9.0 > > Attachments: antlr-3.2.jar, javadoc.patch, NewParser-1.patch, > NewParser-2.patch, NewParser-3.patch, NewParser-3.patch, NewParser-4.patch, > NewParser-5.patch, NewParser-6.patch, NewParser-7.patch, NewParser-8.patches, > NewParser-9.patch > > > There are many bugs in Pig related to the parser, particularly to bad error > messages.
