Brandon Williams updated CASSANDRA-3909:
----------------------------------------
Attachment: 3909.txt
CASSANDRA-3264 (and subsequently CASSANDRA-3883) added wide row support to
hadoop, by returning one column in the row in every call. Pig, however, is
fancy enough that it could handle a wide row in a bag, since bags spill to
disk; it just needs the pagination to for transport since thrift doesn't
stream. Also, if we returned what CFIF gave us, a user wanting to work within
the row would need another costly M/R job to join the row back to its original
state, so we essentially need to 'undo' the pagination and rebuild the row as a
bag. This patch does that, with the caveat that you cannot access any indexes
(and frankly if you have indexes on a wide row you're probably doing something
wrong) since it's impossible for us to order the indexes correctly ahead of
time in a wide row.
