Need a way to get Pig's version programmatically.
-------------------------------------------------
Key: PIG-2455
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2455
Project: Pig
Issue Type: Wish
Components: build
Affects Versions: 0.9.0
Reporter: Harsh J
Priority: Minor
There seems to be no API in Apache Pig that provides back a version string, or
anything of that sort. For Apache Hadoop and HBase, we have VersionInfo classes
doing this.
I'm up for providing a patch if you guys feel this is worth maintaining (you'd
need to maintain a package-info.java with some strings, as you change
versions/revisions, I can look at how hadoop maintains this and help).
I came across this thought while trying to think of an easy way around
OOZIE-623.
