--------------------------------------
JIRA PIG-477 is related to this, I think.
> Pass global configurations to UDF
> ---------------------------------
>
> Key: PIG-602
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-602
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: impl
> Reporter: Yiping Han
> Assignee: Alan Gates
>
> We are seeking an easy way to pass a large number of global configurations to
> UDFs.
> Since our application contains many pig jobs, and has a large number of
> configurations. Passing configurations through command line is not an ideal
> way (i.e. modifying single parameter needs to change multiple command lines).
> And to put everything into the hadoop conf is not an ideal way either.
> We would like to see if Pig can provide such a facility that allows us to
> pass a configuration file in some format(XML?) and then make it available
> through out all the UDFs.
