----------------------------------

             Summary: add source location of the aliases in the physical plan
                 Key: PIG-2659
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2659
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: impl
            Reporter: Julien Le Dem
            Assignee: Julien Le Dem


The goal is to provide better information about what is actually running in a 
job.
In particular when alias names are being reused.

For example with the following script:
{code}
A = LOAD 'foo' using PigStorage();
B = GROUP A BY $0;
A = FOREACH B GENERATE COUNT(A);
STORE A INTO 'bar';
{code}

The job conf will contain the following information
{code}
pig.alias.location: M: A[1,4],A[3,4],B[2,4] C: A[3,4],B[2,4] R: A[3,4]
{code}

A caveat is that the Logical Plan Optimizer throws away the original 
information when merging Logical Operators.
this is already the case today with pig.alias
