Richard Ding updated PIG-1827:
------------------------------
Attachment: PIG-1827_2.patch
The new patch added a test case that supports $ as part of parameter:
{code}
separator = '$'
P = Pig.compile(\"\"\"a = load 'input' using PigStorage('$separator');store a
into 'output';\"\"\")
Q = P.bind()
{code}
On the other hand, Pig Latin doesn't support '\$' in its variables, string
literals.
> When passing a parameter to Pig, if the value contains $ it has to be escaped
> for no apparent reason
