---------------------------------------
This looks good to me. I will try to commit it this weekend if I have a chance
to run test-commit against 0.10 and 0.11 (I am still in Asia).
> 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
> Attachments: fixes_tobag_input_schema_validation.patch
>
>
> 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.
