George Mavromatis resolved PIG-770. ----------------------------------- Resolution: Cannot Reproduce Reporter can no longer reproduce. > Parsing errors with FOREACH a GENERATE FLATTEN(urlContents) AS > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-770 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-770 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.2.0 > Reporter: George Mavromatis > > Loading the 2 following as: > urlContents = LOAD '$input' USING BinStorage() AS (url:chararray, > pg:bytearray); > siteUrls = LOAD '$siteUrls' AS (site:chararray, score:double, > expanded_site:chararray, url:bytearray); > then the following: > urlContentsByUrl = FOREACH a GENERATE FLATTEN(urlContents) AS (url:chararray, > pg:chararray), > FLATTEN(siteUrls.(site, expanded_site)); > works as expected. > But all the rest fail with an error message that does not make sense (to me) > urlContentsByUrl = FOREACH a GENERATE FLATTEN(urlContents) AS (url:chararray, > pg:chararray), > FLATTEN(siteUrls.site); > 2009-04-17 23:18:02,064 [main] ERROR org.apache.pig.tools.grunt.Grunt - ERROR > 1000: Error during parsing.

Invalid alias: siteUrls::site in {url: > chararray,pg: chararray,site: chararray,expanded_site: chararray} > Even if I do not use the AS correctly with FLATTEN, then all or none of the > above should parse, so either way this is a parsing bug. > Note that in the pig latin spec page, there is no formal description of > FLATTEN operation and no example where it is used with GENERATE, AS and a bag > of more than one tuples, so really I can't know if my above syntax is > supported, but try and guess.
