Alan Gates commented on PIG-1303:
---------------------------------

I think the testing you've done is probably adequate.  We're looking at trying to start the release process for 0.7 next week, so let's get this checked in so it can make it.

> I'm unable to set the format of the outgoing date string in the constructor as it's supposed to work. 
> The only way i could change the format was to change the default in the java class and rebuild piggybank.
> Apparently this has something to do with the way pig instantiates DateExtractor, quoting a replier on the mailing list:
> David Vrensk said:
> I ran into the same problem a couple of weeks ago, and
> played around with the code inserting some print/log statements.  It turns
> out that the arguments are only used in the initial constructor calls, when
> the pig process is starting, but once pig reaches the point where it would
> use the udf, it creates new DateExtractors without passing the arguments.
