Jeremy Hanna updated CASSANDRA-2387: ------------------------------------ Description: Packed values are throwing off pig. This ticket is to make it so pig can interpret packed values. Originally we thought we could just use a loadcaster. However, the only way we know how we can do it now is to get the schema through thrift and essentially perform the function of the loadcaster in the getNext method. (was: It appears that after we have applied validators to columns in the metadata that those column values appear as binary data when returned to pig. Validators pack values to bytebuffers to the appropriate width, so that seems to be the issue. So to address this, we should be able to create a loadstorecaster to convert cassandra data types to/from things that are readable by pig.) Summary: Make it possible for pig to understand packed data (was: Create a pig loadstorecaster for the loadfunc/storefunc) > Make it possible for pig to understand packed data > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-2387 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2387 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Jeremy Hanna > Assignee: Jeremy Hanna > Labels: contrib, hadoop, pig > Attachments: 2387-1.txt, loadstorecaster-patch.txt > > > Packed values are throwing off pig.
