[jira] [Commented] (PIG-2834) MultiStorage requires unused constructor argument

["Danny Antonetti (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2834?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13580279#comment-13580279 ] 

Danny Antonetti commented on PIG-2834:
--------------------------------------

I dont see how it is possible to do this, without breaking backwards compatibility.

MultiStorage has 3 consturctors, 

public MultiStorage(String parentPathStr, String splitFieldIndex)
public MultiStorage(String parentPathStr, String splitFieldIndex, String compression)
public MultiStorage(String parentPathStr, String splitFieldIndex, String compression, String fieldDel)


So I can not add a new constructor removing parentPathStr, because they already exist.
