Jacob Perkins commented on PIG-2317:
------------------------------------
Looks like the patch doesn't apply to branch 0.9 anymore. PigContext no longer
has a method 'addScriptFile' that takes two arguments. This breaks the way
required libraries are shipped with the job jar.
Also, @Jonathan, Awesome work! Good to have someone with a bit more java
experience to pick up where I left off :)
The one minor concern I have is that with your patch a ruby script containing
udfs can't be evaluated outside the context of the script engine. That is, I
cant interpret it on the command line without adding the module and class
definition that you define in JrubyScriptEngine.java. It's pretty minor but it
sure would be nice to be able to test and debug a udf completely independently
of Pig itself.
Thoughts?
