Thejas M Nair updated PIG-1572:
-------------------------------
Attachment: PIG-1572.1.patch
Summary of changes
- Changed default type (ie type when input relation to scalar has not type) to
bytearray.
- Replaced PigStorage with InterStorage for load/store of scalar data, so typed
data is stored.
- Changes to track lineage of the ReadScalars udf to the load function(s).
- Removed unnecessary casts on output of ReadScalars
- "describe alias;" PigServer code now checks the alias of the leaf logical
operators
- Changed test cases - explicit cast no longer required when bytearray is used
in arithmetic operations. Moved some of the tests to local mode to reduce test
run time.
