Ashutosh Chauhan commented on PIG-798:
--------------------------------------

Viraj,

I am confused with this description. It seems to me that you are first storing 
some data using BinStorage and then loading it using PigStorage. If that is so, 
obviously it will not work. PigStorage and BinStorage aren't interoperable in 
this way. Specifically, data stored using BinStorage, can only be loaded using 
BinStorage.

> Schema errors when using PigStorage and none when using BinStorage in 
> FOREACH??

> In the following script I have a tab separated text file, which I load using

> {code}
> A = load '/user/viraj/visits.txt' using PigStorage() as (name:chararray, 
> url:chararray, time:chararray);
> B = group A by name;
> store B into '/user/viraj/binstoragecreateop' using BinStorage();
> dump B;
> {code}
> I later load file 'binstoragecreateop' in the following way.
> {code}
> A = load '/user/viraj/binstoragecreateop' using BinStorage();
> B = foreach A generate $0 as name:chararray;

> The above code work properly and returns the right results. If I use 
> PigStorage() to achieve the same, I get the following error.
> {code}
> A = load '/user/viraj/visits.txt' using PigStorage();
> B = foreach A generate $0 as name:chararray;
> dump B;

> So why should the semantics of BinStorage() be different from PigStorage() 
> where is ok not to specify a schema??? Should it not be consistent across 
> both.
