STORE X into 'bla' using mystorefunc('abc', 'xyz');
abc and xyz will be passed to the constructor of your store function
as strings. You can pass the name of your configuration file in this
manner.

I have actually written my own UDF to store data. I need to pass a
config file to this UDF. Currently I have hardcoded the config file
name inside the UDF.
Now I want to use the same UDF for various config. Therefore, I
wanted to pass a filename as an argument.

By API, PigStorage delimiter needs to be single byte character.For
your requirement you can possibly extend Utf8StorageConverter/
PigStorage.
Or is it possible to parse the file by the byte representation of
the your string and using with \u? Crazy thought this.., you will
have to alter functionality.

Is there a way to pass a string as an argument to the STORE function?
For example: STORE A in 'somefile' USING PigStorage("<STRING>")
