Johannes Rußek commented on PIG-1303: ------------------------------------- Dmitriy, i should be able to test your patch on my issues by tomorrow. > unable to set outgoing format for > org.apache.pig.piggybank.evaluation.util.apachelogparser.DateExtractor > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-1303 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1303 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.6.0 > Environment: pig 0.6.0 on a fedora linux machine, jdk 1.6 u11 > Reporter: Johannes Rußek > Assignee: Dmitriy V. Ryaboy > Fix For: 0.7.0, 0.8.0 > > Attachments: PIG-1303.patch, TypeCheckingVisitor.java.diff > > > I'm unable to set the format of the outgoing date string in the constructor > as it's supposed to work. > The only way i could change the format was to change the default in the java > class and rebuild piggybank. > Apparently this has something to do with the way pig instantiates > DateExtractor, quoting a replier on the mailing list: > David Vrensk said: > I ran into the same problem a couple of weeks ago, and > played around with the code inserting some print/log statements. It turns > out that the arguments are only used in the initial constructor calls, when > the pig process is starting, but once pig reaches the point where it would > use the udf, it creates new DateExtractors without passing the arguments. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
