> This ticket is derived from PARQUET-293 (which actually describes a Spark SQL issue).
> My comment on that issue quoted below:
> {quote}
> ...  The reason of this exception is that, the Scala code Scrooge generates is actually a trait extending {{Product}}:
> {code}
> trait Junk
>   extends ThriftStruct
>   with scala.Product2[Long, String]
>   with java.io.Serializable
> {code}
> while Spark expects a case class, something like:
> {code}
> case class Junk(junkID: Long, junkString: String)
> {code}
> The key difference here is that the latter case class version has a constructor whose arguments can be transformed into fields of the DataFrame schema.  The exception was thrown because Spark can't find such a constructor from trait {{Junk}}.
> {quote}
> We can make {{ScalaReflection}} try {{apply}} methods in companion objects, so that trait types generated by Scrooge can also be used for Spark SQL schema inference.
