I have TSVs with a lot of columns, and I would like to address them by name, as specified in the header line (first row), within Pig.
The best I can come up with a.t.m is to write a script that strips the header line from the file and converts it to the form (col1:string, col2:string, ...), then plug that schema string into the AS portion of my LOAD statement. Then I'll project columns I want and manually typecast them. Is there a better, simple way? -Mason
