[jira] Commented: (PIG-391) There should be a DataAtom.setValue(DataAtom)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-391?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12624501#action_12624501 ] 

Olga Natkovich commented on PIG-391:
------------------------------------

DataAtom is going away once types branch is merged back to the trunk.

> setValue on a DataAtom can accept a string or integer or double, but not a DataAtom.  That means I have to inject a string conversion or type test into my code when I write a UDF.  Definitely not good.
> This should be trivial.
