Thejas M Nair commented on PIG-1314:
------------------------------------
PIG-1314-7.patch committed to trunk! Thanks Zhijie.
We need to update the documentation regarding this change. Can you please
upload a new patch for that ? To see generated docs, run - ant
-Dforrest.home=<Forrest installation dir> docs. The files to be edited are
under - trunk/src/docs/src/documentation/ .
We should also add a few end to end test cases for datetime. See
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/PIG/HowToTest#HowToTest-EndtoendTesting
. We should have a few queries that do some of the basic operations on date
time, and queries that have order-by , group and join on date fields.
These can be submitted as multiple patches.

> Hadoop/Pig are primarily used to parse log data, and most logs have a
> timestamp component. Therefore Pig should support dates as a primitive.
> Can someone familiar with adding types to pig comment on how hard this is?
> We're looking at doing this, rather than use UDFs. Is this a patch that
> would be accepted?
> This is a candidate project for Google summer of code 2012. More information
