Pi Song commented on PIG-256:
-----------------------------
This seems to follow the dispatching mechanism in Java so I agree.
> support non default constructor with variable number of arguments

>
> pig does not support non default constructor with variable number of
> arguments support. In our case we need this because the number of variables
> that are specified by the user are varying. The fix is simple. Pig calls
> getConstr("agr1","arg2",...,"argn") and if it doesn't find it throws a
> noSuchMethodFound exception. In the catch block we just need to add code to
> check if we can wrap the arg1..n in a String[] and check if a constructor can
> be found with this signature getConstr(args[]). This would resolve the
> variable num args issue.
