Julien Le Dem commented on PIG-1827:
------------------------------------
Hi Richard,
thanks for taking care of this.
* in test/org/apache/pig/test/TestScriptLanguage.java
the test should verify that the value are properly passed to the script
{code}
"testvar = 'abcd$py'",
"testvar2 = '$'",
"testvar3 = '\\\\\\\\$'",
"testvar4 = 'abcd\\$py$'",
"testvar5 = 'abcd\\$py'",
{code}
what about this?
{code}
"P = Pig.compile(\"\"\"a = load '$input'; b = foreach a generate
$0,$1,$testvar,$testvar2,$testvar3,$testvar4,$testvar5; store b into
'$output';\"\"\")",
{code}
then you can check that you get the values in the output.
we should check that the transformation is bijective.
