Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-158:
-----------------------------------
This patch adds a new DataFileWriter constructor that opens an existing data
file. Would it be better to have a single contructor (or perhaps factory
method) that accepts an "overwrite" flag? This would, when overwrite=false, if
a file exists, open it for append, otherwise create a new one. If
overwrite=true, it would always create a new file. Which is the most useful
API for applications?
> Add test to Java bindings for opening a non-empty file object container and
> successfully adding new elements
