             Summary: TOBAG output schema reporting
                 Key: PIG-2680
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2680
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: internal-udfs
    Affects Versions: 0.10.0
            Reporter: Andy Schlaikjer


TOBAG only reports an output schema beyond {{{(NULL)}}} when all input field 
schemas match deeply, including field schema aliases. This seems wrong to me. 
Shouldn't it just require recursive type equality?

For relevant code, see:

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/pig/tags/release-0.9.2/src/org/apache/pig/builtin/TOBAG.java?view=markup#l142

{code:java}
    private boolean nullEquals(Schema currentSchema, Schema newSchema) {
        if(currentSchema == null){
            if(newSchema != null){
                return false;
            }
            return true;
        }
        return currentSchema.equals(newSchema);
    }
{code}

The included patch modifies the return line to use 
{{Schema.equals(currentSchema, newSchema, false, true)}} to avoid alias 
matching requirement.
