Thejas M Nair commented on PIG-1572:
------------------------------------
Yes, the changes to UserFuncExpression.getFieldSchema() are no longer required
because the cast inserted to appropriate type. But while thinking about that I
believe I have found an issue with the handling of non PigStorage load
functions.
Since this patch address a bunch of issues I will commit it and create a new
jira to address that, and also look at the utility of this change to
UserFuncExpression.getFieldSchema().
> change default datatype when relations are used as scalar to bytearray
