> This is something that I always hear people complaining about. Note that this depends on the FlattenOutput annotation.
> This UDF supports the following.
> {code}
> a = load 'a' as (x1, y1, z1);
> b = load 'a' as (x2, y2, z2);
> c = join a by x1, b by x2;
> describe c;
> --c: {a::x1: bytearray,a::y1: bytearray,a::z1: bytearray,b::x2: bytearray,b::y2: bytearray,b::z2: bytearray}
> d = foreach c generate RemovePrefix(*);
> describe d;
> --d: {x1: bytearray,y1: bytearray,z1: bytearray,x2: bytearray,y2: bytearray,z2: bytearray}
> {code}
