@Ben

I have a question about your second suggestion.

If I don't implement LoadFunc, I can't  cast the UDF(HBaseStorage) to 
*LoadFunc*. Then I will get the exception below.

org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.hbase.HBaseStorage cannot be cast to 
org.apache.pig.LoadFunc
java.io.IOException: org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.hbase.HBaseStorage cannot be 
cast to org.apache.pig.LoadFunc

It seems that we only accept four types of UDF in pig-latin:    EVALFUNC, 
COMPARISONFUNC, LOADFUNC, STOREFUNC. Am I right?

Can you explain more about your second suggestion? Thanks in advanced.

> It needs to be able to load full table in hbase.  (maybe ... difficult? i'm 
> not sure yet.)
> Also, as described below, 
> It needs to compose an abstract 2d-table only with certain data filtered from 
> hbase array structure using arbitrary query-delimited. 
> {code}
> A = LOAD table('hbase_table');
> or
> B = LOAD table('hbase_table') Using HbaseQuery('Query-delimited by attributes 
> & timestamp') as (f1, f2[, f3]);
> {code}
> Once test is done on my local machines, 
> I will clarify the grammars and give you more examples to help you explain 
> more storage options. 
> Any advice welcome.
