[jira] Commented: (PIG-1016) Reading in map data seems broken

["hc busy (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1016?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12773782#action_12773782 ] 

hc busy commented on PIG-1016:
------------------------------

Wait, wait, was that final? Why not have a FastPigStorage that parses maps into bytearray, and have PigStorage do the same as BinStorage returning nested objects?

How does the decision making work? Is there a vote or do I get one sponsor? or what?


thanks!!

> Hi, I'm trying to load a map that has a tuple for value. The read fails in 0.4.0 because of a misconfiguration in the parser. Where as in almost all documentation it is stated that value of the map can be any time.
> I've attached a patch that allows us to read in complex objects as value as documented. I've done simple verification of loading in maps with tuple/map values and writing them back out using LOAD and STORE. All seems to work fine.
