In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar and salt until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Blend in the milk and vanilla; set aside. In a small saucepan, combine cornstarch and remaining sugar. Stir in pineapple; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil for 2 minutes. Pour into pastry shell; spoon cream cheese mixture over top. Sprinkle with pecans. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 325 degrees; bake 45-50 minutes more or until center is set. Cool completely; chill before serving.
