Ashutosh Chauhan commented on PIG-2339:
---------------------------------------
@Min,
Which version of HCatalog you tried with? Can you try this with 0.3 and if
problem exists please feel free to open hcatalog jira as it is hcatalog bug
then, not Pig's.
> HCatLoader loads all the partitions in a partitioned table even though a
> filter clause on the partitions is specified in the Pig script

> A table created by HCAT has the following partitions;
> hcat -e "show partitions paritionedtable"
> {quote}
> grid=AB/dt=2011_07_01
> grid=AB/dt=2011_07_02
> grid=AB/dt=2011_07_03
> grid=XY/dt=2011_07_01
> grid=XY/dt=2011_07_02
> grid=XY/dt=2011_07_03
> grid=XY/dt=2011_07_04
> ...
> {quote}
> The total number of partitions in the table is around 3200.
> A Pig script of this nature tries to access this data using the partitions in
> it's filter.
> {script}
> A = LOAD 'paritionedtable' USING org.apache.hcatalog.pig.HCatLoader();
> B = FILTER A BY grid=='AB' AND dt=='2011_07_04';
> C = LIMIT B 10;
> store C into 'HCAT' using PigStorage();
> {script}
> This script, fails to run as the job.xml generated by Pig is so large (8MB),
> that the Hadoop Fred's limitation does not allow it to submit the job.
> After debugging it was found that in the HCatTableInfo class the function
> gets a null filter value. getInputTableInfo(filter=null ..)
> I suspect that "setPartitionFilter" function in Pig does not pass the filter
> correctly to the HCatLoader. This is happening with both Pig 0.9 and 0.8
