Setting pig job name

Hi guys,

This is probably just a quick answer, but how do I set the pig job
name? I'm generating Pig jobs in Java, and each job has the name
"PigLatin:DefaultJobName" in the hadoop tracker. How can I change it?
Or is there an easy way to generate a more useful name (in Hive, the
default job name is based on the actual query)?

Thanks,
Jeff

Also, if you run the pig job from a script rather than from the grunt shell, the name is the name of the script (so, "pig foo.pig" names spawned jobs foo.pig)

You can do this in your script as well:

SET job.name 'my job';
