Russell Jurney updated PIG-2910:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
I want to toString() schemas and send them to the backend via UDFContext. At 
the moment this requires writing your own toString() method that 
Utils.getSchemaFromString() can read. Making a readable schema for the backend 
would be an improvement.

I spoke with Thejas, who believes this is a bug. The workaround for the moment 
is, for example:

String schemaString = inputSchema.toString().substring(1, 
inputSchema.toString().length() - 1);

// Set the input schema for processing
UDFContext context = UDFContext.getUDFContext();
Properties udfProp = context.getUDFProperties(this.getClass());

udfProp.setProperty("horton.json.udf.schema", schemaString);

...

schema = Utils.getSchemaFromString(strSchema);
