             Summary: Pig should propagate changes set to JobContext during 
InputFormat.getSplits()
                 Key: PIG-2667
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2667
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Francis Liu


This behavior is important as this is a way for InputFormat to inject setup 
procedures that doesn't necessarily have to be exposed to the user. ie 
Delegation token retrieval, adding dependendencies to the distributed cache. 
This is especially important to HCatalog as it is an abstraction of the 
underlying format thus setup procedures should be kept under the covers.
