Scott Carey commented on PIG-1506: ---------------------------------- I have just confirmed that on 0.7 it works fine, but 0.5 does not. So this was fixed in 0.6 or 0.7. I suppose I can take out some null guards from my scripts now :) This was my test: {code} A = LOAD '/tmp/test.txt' as (a,b,c); B = LOAD '/tmp/test.txt' as (a,b,c); C = JOIN A by (a,b), B by (a,b); DUMP A; DUMP C; {code} With 0.5 I get: A: (fred,1,3) (bob,,4) C: (bob,,4,bob,,4) (fred,1,3,fred,1,3) and with 0.7 C is: (fred,1,3,fred,1,3) > Need to clarify the difference between null handling in JOIN and COGROUP > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: PIG-1506 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1506 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: documentation > Reporter: Olga Natkovich > Assignee: Corinne Chandel > Fix For: 0.8.0 > > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
