UDF for converting datatype bytearray to UUID

[deepak rosario tharigopla <ro...@gmail.com>]

HI Guys,

I have written an UDF which when used around a column like an aggregate
function in the PIG script, will convert the bytearray to UUID or HEX chars
which is read from a cassandra table's UUID column. Could be an handy
function for users when they use pig scripts on cassandra database.

Does this qualify as an UDF to be added to the master pig's piggybank.

Please comment..

Definitely.  File a JIRA with a patch and one of us can review it.
