----------------------------------------

> Key: PIG-2536
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2536
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Jonathan Coveney
> Assignee: Jonathan Coveney
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.11
>
> Attachments: PIG-2436-0.patch

>
> Currently, pig does not allow this syntax:
> {code}
> A = load 'thing' (x:int, y:int, z:int);
> B = distinct A.x;
> C = distinct A.(y,z)
> D = distinct C.$0;
> {code}
> and so on. With this patch, it does. I should probably add more tests, though
> it's a simple patch... it just turns distinct rel.proj into syntactic sugar
> for distinct (foreach rel generate proj)
