[jira] Updated: (PIG-972) Make describe work with nested foreach

["Olga Natkovich (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-972?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Olga Natkovich updated PIG-972:
-------------------------------

    Release Note: 
In the earlier version of Pig, describe could only be applied to outer relations. With Pig 0.8.0, describe could also be applied to the relations defined in nested foreach. 

Example:

grunt> A = load 'studentab10k' as (name, age, gpa);
grunt> B = group A by name;
grunt> C = foreach B {
>> D = distinct A.age;
>> generate COUNT(D), group;}
grunt> describe C::D;
D: {age: bytearray}

Note that you access the inner relation via the outer one using :: operator.

> Currently Parser can't deal with that. This is because describe is part of Grunt parser while the rest of nested foreach is handled by the QueryParser
