Jonathan Coveney updated PIG-2788: ---------------------------------- Attachment: PIG-2788-0.patch I bet nobody thought this would ever get some love :) but this has something that has long annoyed me, and I wanted to familiarize myself a bit more with that path of the code. This has the syntax Jeff proposed. Nothing has changed, except now you can optionally do ${stuff} to ally ambiguity, thus allow ${tmp}_ and other such things. It's a pretty easy change, too. > improved string interpolation of variables > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: PIG-2788 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2788 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.9.2, 0.10.0 > Reporter: Jeff Hodges > Assignee: Jonathan Coveney > Attachments: PIG-2788-0.patch > > > The simplest example of the failure of the current string interpolation is > {code} > store my_rel into '$OUTPUT_'; > {code} > This will raise an error saying that OUTPUT_ is not a variable passed in. > Similar errors happen with a variety of other trailing characters. > It would be nice if '${OUTPUT}_', or something similar, worked. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
