Xiang Li commented on PIG-4967:
-------------------------------
Hi Daniel, thanks for the comments!
1. Could you please elaborate more on "decompose ControlledJob"?
Do you mean that we should do some checkings before calling line 182 in
PigJobControl as follow:
{code}
log.debug("Checking state of job "+j);
{code}
2. When null is detected, do you think I can throw an Exception(May be
IOException?) here, or I just log a waring, and give up logging in 182 and make
Pig continue. I prefer the latter one, as line 182 is only to write a log for
debug, we should not stop Pig running if the logging has something wrong? Does
it make sense to you?
