Case sensitiveness of type information specified when using custom reducer 
causes type mismatch
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-1271
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1271
             Project: Hadoop Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Query Processor
    Affects Versions: 0.5.0
            Reporter: Dilip Joseph


Type information specified  while using a custom reduce script is converted to 
lower case, and causes type mismatch during query semantic analysis .  The 
following REDUCE query where field name =  "userId" failed.

hive> CREATE TABLE SS (
   >                     a INT,
   >                     b INT,
   >                     vals ARRAY<STRUCT<userId:INT, y:STRING>>
   >                 );
OK

hive> FROM (select * from srcTable DISTRIBUTE BY id SORT BY id) s
   >     INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE SS
   >     REDUCE *
   >         USING 'myreduce.py'
   >         AS
   >                     (a INT,
   >                     b INT,
   >                     vals ARRAY<STRUCT<userId:INT, y:STRING>>
   >                     )
   >         ;
FAILED: Error in semantic analysis: line 2:27 Cannot insert into
target table because column number/types are different SS: Cannot
convert column 2 from array<struct<userId:int,y:string>> to
array<struct<userid:int,y:string>>.

The same query worked fine after changing "userId" to "userid".
