Hi,
I have columns in HBase which contain names with long numbers and are stored
as bytes. I'm using pig 0.8.1 and I'm trying to load the data stored in
them. When scanning the table in the HBase shell the column name appears
like this:
group_info:\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01
I need to escape the backslash otherwise it throws an error when trying to
use it in a column name so I tried loading it using:
LOAD 'hbase://SampleTable' USING
org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.hbase.HBaseStorage('group_info:\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x01')
But no data is load.
Any pointers on how to achieve this?
PD: I'm using HBase 0.90.3.
