PigInputFormat uses class.isAssignableFrom() where instanceof is more
appropriate
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIG-2053
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2053
Project: Pig
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.10
Reporter: Woody Anderson
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 0.10
Attachments: 2053.patch
This is a code style/quality improvement.
isAssignableFrom is appropriate when the class is not known at compile type,
but assignment needs to be checked.
e.g. foo.getClass().isAssignableFrom(bar.getClass())
but, if the class of foo is known (e.g. X.class), then instanceof is more
appropriate and readable.
i also made use of de morgan's to simply the "is combininable" boolean
statement, which is hard to grok as written.
