Alan Gates created HIVE-7098: -------------------------------- Summary: RecordUpdater should extend RecordWriter Key: HIVE-7098 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7098 Project: Hive Issue Type: Sub-task Components: File Formats, Transactions Reporter: Alan Gates Assignee: Alan Gates
A new interface ql.io.RecordUpdater was added as part of the ACID work in 0.13. This interface should extend RecordWriter because: # If it does not significant portions of FileSinkOperator will have to be reworked to handle both RecordWriter and RecordUpdater # Once a file format accepts transactions, it should not generally be possible to write using RecordWriter.write as that will write old style records without transaction information. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
