----------------------------------
Attachment: PIG2427.patch
> getSchemaFromString throws away the name of the tuple that is in a bag
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------

> {code}Schema thing =
> Utils.getSchemaFromString("b:bag{t:tuple(x:int,y:int,z:int)}");
> System.out.println(thing.getField(0).schema.getField(0).alias); //returns
> null{code}
> This isn't a huge issue, but it does seem odd to throw away this information
> unnecessarily. While any bag will of course have thus tuple and no other
> elements, it seems to violate the principle of least astonishment: if the
> tuple name was specified, shouldn't it be kept around?
> Edit: I just found a case where this actually can be a bit annoying. If you
> want to pull that tuple out of the bag, for whatever reason, you've now lost
> its name.
