Brock Noland commented on AVRO-1530:
------------------------------------
I was thinking that we'd throw a subclass of IOException so that'd be backwards
compatible. Though, I do agree that clients could ignore zero length files.
> Java DataFileStream does not allow distinguishing between empty files and
> corrupt files

> When writing data to HDFS, especially with Flume, it's possible to write
