Ruslan Al-Fakikh commented on PIG-2315:
---------------------------------------
Daniel, I think that deprecating/removing the "cast in the as clause" is
easier, because it is not working anyway. I guess the "()" should stay.
I also have a suggestion to make this issue a duplicate of PIG-2216 instead of
PIG-2216 being a duplicate of this issue. It seems that the description of
PIG-2216 explains just everything and does not cause confusion.
