             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.
