Pradeep Kamath commented on PIG-1014: ------------------------------------- To achieve 1. above, we would translate COUNT( A ) to COUNT_STAR( A ) during job compilation. Since 3. above has multiple options and does not seem to be a prevalent use case (SQL does not support it), another option is to disable it - thoughts? > Pig should convert COUNT(relation) to COUNT_STAR(relation) so that all > records are counted without considering nullness of the fields in the records > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-1014 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1014 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.4.0 > Reporter: Pradeep Kamath > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
