> Create SchemaRDD from case classes with multiple constructors
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-4791
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4791
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 1.3.0
>            Reporter: Joseph K. Bradley
>            Priority: Minor

> Issue: One can usually take an RDD of case classes and create a SchemaRDD, 
> where Spark SQL infers the schema from the case class metadata.  However, if 
> the case class has multiple constructors, then ScalaReflection.schemaFor gets 
> confused.
> Motivation: In spark.ml, I would like to create a class with the following 
> signature:
> ```
> case class LabeledPoint(label: Double, features: Vector, weight: Double) {
>   def this(label: Double, features: Vector) = this(label, features, 1.0)
> }
> ```
> Proposed fix: Change ScalaReflection.schemaFor so it checks for whether there 
> are multiple constructors.  If there are multiple ones, it should take the 
> primary constructor.  This will not change the behavior of existing code 
> since it currently only supports case classes with 1 constructor.
