[jira] [Commented] (PIG-3805) ToString(datetime [, format string]) doesn't work without the second argument

["smit hinsu (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-3805?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13933801#comment-13933801 ] 

smit hinsu commented on PIG-3805:
---------------------------------

I am new to Apache Pig and tried to work on this issue as a start.

>From my basic investigation it seems testConversionBetweenDateTimeAndString() function in test/org/apache/pig/test/TestBuiltin.java has some tested ToString method without second argument.

Am I missing something? I downloaded code from the "git clone https://github.com/apache/pig.git".

> The exec function of ToString is written to handle 1 or 2 arguments (it defaults to ISO, which is consistent with ToDate).
> However, the getArgToFuncMapping function returns only one FuncSpec, requiring the formatString argument.
> To fix: just return add another FuncSpec to getArcToFuncMapping.
