I have a tuple X = "contents of html file" like X=(file:chararray) X = (<html><body><h2>hie</h2><h2>hie</h2><h2>hie</h2><h2>hie</h2>djfkdj<p>jhsdaj</p><h2>hie</h2></body></html>)
in Y I have indices and tag name like Y= tag,start,end (html,0,105) (body,6,98) (h2,12,24) (h2,24,36) (h2,36,48) (h2,48,60) (p,66,79) (h2,79,91) Z = FOREACH Y GENERATE udf(??); (what should be parameters to udf to send X.file) Now how do I store a tuple part of the string file from start index to end index in some other alias say Z is my question Join or Cross is not an option because I want to avoid redundant storage Any alternate implementation or idea is welcomed -- Vignesh Miriyala http://web.iiit.ac.in/~miriyala http://vigneshmiriyala.wordpress.com
