@InterfaceAudience.Public

public interface LoadCaster

An interface that provides cast implementations for load functions. For casts between bytearray objects and internal types, Pig relies on the load function that loaded the data to provide the cast. This is because Pig does not understand the binary representation of the data and thus cannot cast it. This interface provides functions to cast from bytearray to each of Pig's internal types.

Since:

Pig 0.7
