Gianmarco De Francisci Morales commented on PIG-1904:
-----------------------------------------------------
Created PIG-2169 for this.
Anyway given the benefit/cost ratio I wouldn't try to fix it.
A Nondeterministic UDF in a Split is probably better expressed as a Sample.
Anyway I think this simple workaround should work:
{code}
a = LOAD 'a.txt' AS (f1,f2,f3);
b = FOREACH a GENERATE f1, f2, f3, NonDetUDF(f1,f2,f3) AS f4;
SPLIT b INTO c IF f4 < 0.5, D OTHERWISE;
{code}
> Default split destination

> "split" statement is better to have a default destination, eg:
> {code}
> SPLIT A INTO X IF f1<7, Y IF f2==5, Z IF (f3<6 OR f3>6), OTHER otherwise; --
> OTHERS has all tuples with f1>=7 && f2!=5 && f3==6
> {code}
> This is a candidate project for Google summer of code 2011. More information
