> Support UDFs in a FOREACH Before a Merge Join

> Key: PIG-4458

> Right now, the MapSideMergeValidator outright rejects any foreach that has a
> UDF in it:
> {code}
> private boolean isAcceptableForEachOp(Operator lo) throws
> LogicalToPhysicalTranslatorException {
> if (lo instanceof LOForEach) {
> OperatorPlan innerPlan = ((LOForEach) lo).getInnerPlan();
> validateMapSideMerge(innerPlan.getSinks(), innerPlan);
> return !containsUDFs((LOForEach) lo);
> } else {
> return false;
> }
> }
> {code}
> There is a TODO for this later on in that same class (inside containsUDFs):
> {code}
> // TODO (dvryaboy): in the future we could relax this rule by tracing what
> fields
> // are being passed into the UDF, and only refusing if the UDF is working on
> the
> // join key. Transforms of other fields should be ok.
> {code}
> We should do the TODO and relax this requirement or just remove it altogether
