Alan Gates commented on HIVE-7098:
----------------------------------
Ran the failing tests locally, all of which pass except root_dir_external_table
which fails on trunk as well. So I conclude none of these are issues for this
patch.
> RecordUpdater should extend RecordWriter

> 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.
