Hi,
Say I have three files `data1`, `data2` and `assocs`:
$ cat data1
key1,foo
key2,bar
$ cat data2
key3,braz
key4,froz
$ cat assoc
key1,key3
key2,key4
I load these files via
$ pig -b -p debug=WARN -x local
Warning: $HADOOP_HOME is deprecated.

grunt> data1 = load 'data1' as (key: chararray, val: chararray);
grunt> data2 = load 'data2' as (key: chararray, val: chararray);
grunt> assoc = load 'assoc' as (key1: chararray, key2: chararray);
What I want is a relation that looks like:
(foo, braz)
(bar, froz)
That is
data1_val, data1_key <-> assoc_key1, assoc_key2 <-> data2_key, data2_val
So my first assumption was to do a join on data1, assoc first and then
on the resulting relation with data2. Anyways, doing a
A = join data1 by key, assoc by key1;
dump A;
Doesn't yield any results. Is this a bug or am I doing something
conceptually wrong?
