Pi Song commented on PIG-159:
-----------------------------
I tried to do something like this:-
a = load 'a' as (group: tuple(field1:int, field2:double) , a:
bag{tuple1:tuple(field1: int,field2: long)}, b: bag{tuple1:tuple(field1:
bytearray,field2: double)} ) ;
But it said:-
[junit] Was expecting one of:
[junit] <IDENTIFIER> ...
[junit] ")" ...
Can you please have a look?

> In order to support the new types functionality described in
> http://wiki.apache.org/pig/PigTypesFunctionalSpec, the parse needs to change
> in the following ways:
> 1) AS needs to support types in addition to aliases. So where previously it
> was legal to say:
> a = load 'myfile' as a, b, c;
> it will now also be legal to say
> a = load 'myfile' as a integer, b float, c chararray;
> 2) Non string constants need to be supported. This includes non-string
> atomic types (integer, long, float, double) and the non-atomic types bags,
> tuples, and maps.
> 3) A cast operator needs to be added so that fields can be explicitly casted.
> 4) Changes to DEFINE, to allow users to declare arguments and return types
> for UDFs
