Wei Liu updated SPARK-19322: ---------------------------- Description: When creating StructType using ScalaRelfection.schemaFor, the column names are defined by scala case class parameter names. This causes minor inconvenience when reading/writing data between Python and Scala which follow different naming conventions. Ideally, we should allow customize column names using Scala annotations in a similar fashion to Jackson serialization libraries. For example, we could define schema as : case class MySchema(@fieldName("long_field") longField: Long, @fieldName("int_field") intField: Int) The field/column names can now be customized. was:When creating StructType using Scalarelfection.schemaFor, the column names are defined by scala case class parameter names.
