Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-2387:
---------------------------------------------
This is not really because of validators, but the format the data is stored in.
If you're using the cli to insert data, it automatically inspects the CF and
discovers the validator, then packs the data accordingly.
> Create a pig loadstorecaster for the loadfunc/storefunc

>
> It appears that after we have applied validators to columns in the metadata
> that those column values appear as binary data when returned to pig.
> Validators pack values to bytebuffers to the appropriate width, so that seems
> to be the issue. So to address this, we should be able to create a
> loadstorecaster to convert cassandra data types to/from things that are
> readable by pig.
