Prasen Mukherjee commented on PIG-928:
--------------------------------------
Just curious to know, can we not implement it along the lines of DEFINE
commands. In that case we will let the shell take care of scripting issues, and
no need to include scripting-specific jars ( jython etc. ). That might require
code changes in core-pig and cant be implemented as a separate UDF-package
though.

> It should be possible to write UDFs in scripting languages such as python,
> ruby, etc. This frees users from needing to compile Java, generate a jar,
> etc. It also opens Pig to programmers who prefer scripting languages over
> Java.
