> Key: PIG-738
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-738
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: grunt
> Affects Versions: 0.3.0
> Reporter: Viraj Bhat

> Consider a pig script which parses and counts regular expressions from a text
> file.
> The regular expression supplied in the Pig script needs to escape the "."
> (dot) character.
> {code}
> register myregexp.jar;
> -- pattern not picked up
> define minelogs ci_pig_udfs.RegexGroupCount('www\\.yahoo\\.com/sports');
> A = load '/user/viraj/regexpinput.txt' using PigStorage() as (source :
> chararray);
> B = foreach A generate minelogs(source) as sportslogs;
> dump B;
> {code}
> Snippet of UDF RegexGroupCount.java
> {code}
> public class RegexGroupCount extends EvalFunc<Integer> {
> private final Pattern pattern_;
> public RegexGroupCount(String patternStr) {
> System.out.println("My pattern supplied is "+patternStr);
> System.out.println("Equality test
> "+patternStr.equals("www\\.yahoo\\.com/sports"));
> pattern_ = Pattern.compile(patternStr,
> Pattern.DOTALL|Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE);
> }
> public Integer exec(Tuple input) throws IOException {
