-----------------------------------------------

Hi,
I  found the problem. It seems that in the newplan LOLoad is created with 
Configuration null. The configuration reference can only be passed via the 
constructor, and I assumed this would always be none null :(. 

I'll add the check, but should the Configuration instance be null here? 


> pig needs to call setPartitionFilter if schema is null but getPartitionKeys 
> is not

> I'm writing a loader that works with hive style partitioning e.g. 
> /logs/type1/daydate=2010-11-01
> The loader does not know the schema upfront and this is something that the 
> user adds in the script using the AS clause.
> The problem is that this user defined schema is not available to the loader, 
> so the loader cannot return any schema, the Loader does know what the 
> partition keys are and pig needs in some way to know about these partition 
> keys. 
> Currently if the schema is null pig never calls the 
> LoadMetaData:getPartitionKeys method or the setPartitionFilter method.
