Gianmarco De Francisci Morales resolved PIG-2455.
-------------------------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
This issue was solved in PIG-2380 and is integrated into trunk.
I am marking this Jira as duplicate and closing it for now.
In PIG-2380 we use info from the manifest to keep track of version numbers.
If you feel that the patch in PIG-2380 does not address the issues you have in
mind, please reopen the ticket and let us know what you think would be the gain
in keeping a separate package-info class.
Thanks
> Need a way to get Pig's version programmatically.

> Labels: newbie

> 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.
