             Summary: Pig fails to concatenate semi-colon in generate statement
                 Key: PIG-3733
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-3733
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.11.1
            Reporter: sudhir mallem


Pig fails to concatenate semi-colon to a column in a generate statement. I've tried multiple ways including unicode version (\\u003B), but fails.

{code}
grunt> a = load '/user/smallem/mem.csv' using PigStorage('|') as (uid:int, sid:chararray);
grunt> b = foreach a generate uid as uid, CONCAT('v=1;',sid) as sids;
<line 3, column 0>  mismatched character '<EOF>' expecting '''

{code}

The same however works when used nested statement.

{code}
grunt> a = load '/user/smallem/mem.csv' using PigStorage('|') as (uid:int, sid:chararray);
grunt> b = foreach a {                                                                    
>>         x = CONCAT('v=1;',sid);
>>         generate uid as memberuid, x as sids ;
>> };
grunt>
{code}
