Dmitriy V. Ryaboy updated PIG-2151:
-----------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 0.11
     Release Note: 
 An EvalFunc can annotated with an @OutputSchema annotation to
 tell Pig what the expected output is. This can be used in place
 of EvalFunc.outputSchema(Schema inpSchema)

The default implementation of EvalFunc.outputSchema(Schema inpSchema) will look 
at this annotation and return an interpreted schema, if the annotation is 
present.

Implementing a custom EvalFunc.outputSchema(Schema inpSchema) will override the 
annotation (unless you deal with it explicitly, or by calling 
super.outputSchema(schema))

Here's an example of a complex schema declared in an annotation:
@OutputSchema("y:bag{t:tuple(len:int,word:chararray)}")

           Status: Resolved  (was: Patch Available)

Committed to trunk.

> In Python udfs, the output schema of an eval func is specified via an 
> @OutputSchema annotation.
> We should do the same for Java udfs instead of making people write the 
> cumbersome outputSchema functions.
> If an annotation exists, it should override an existing outputSchema 
> implementation (since all evalFuncs will inherit the method from 
> EvalFunc.java and there is thus no way to *not* have an implementation).
