Semicolon in paramenters for UDF results in parsing error
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIG-2507
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2507
Project: Pig
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.9.1, 0.8.0, 0.10
Reporter: Vivek Padmanabhan
If I have a semicolon in the parameter passed to a udf, the script execution
will fail with a parsing error.
a = load 'i1' as (f1:chararray);
c = foreach a generate REGEX_EXTRACT(f1, '.;' ,1);
dump c;
The above script fails with the below error
[main] ERROR org.apache.pig.tools.grunt.Grunt - ERROR 1200: <file test.pig,
line 3, column 0> mismatched character '<EOF>' expecting '''
Even replacing the semicolon with Unicode \u003B results in the same error.
c = foreach a generate REGEX_EXTRACT(f1, '.\u003B',1);
