Tom White commented on PIG-2499: -------------------------------- I wonder if {{touch TouchedFileInsideGrunt_61 | ls}} is causing a race, we should probably change it to {{touch TouchedFileInsideGrunt_61 && ls}} for safety's sake anyway. PIG-2206 was reporting this test as failing too. I don't think it's Mac specific as I have seen this failure on Linux too. > Pig TestGrunt.testShellCommand occasionally fails > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-2499 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2499 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Bug > Components: build > Reporter: Tom White > > The following code fails from time to time (with a NPE since > {{fileReader.readLine()}} returns null) : > {noformat} > strCmd = "sh bash -c 'touch TouchedFileInsideGrunt_61 | ls | grep > TouchedFileInsideGrunt_61 > fileContainingTouchedFileInsideGruntShell_71'"; > cmd = new ByteArrayInputStream(strCmd.getBytes()); > reader = new InputStreamReader(cmd); > grunt = new Grunt(new BufferedReader(reader), context); > grunt.exec(); > fileReader = new BufferedReader(new > FileReader("fileContainingTouchedFileInsideGruntShell_71")); > > assertTrue(fileReader.readLine().equals("TouchedFileInsideGrunt_61")); > {noformat} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
