Yes, this sounds very interesting. Does it build on the Record IO
classes or is it completely separate?
I'm afraid it's completely separate, although it's not much code. The
TypeBuilder is ~600 lines of code right now, plus maybe 500 lines of
additional support (compression classes, etc.).
It can't be considered a drop-in replacement for the record
stuff--you've already got C++ support and complex record types. I don't
know if it even makes sense to try to integrate the code I have, or if
it should just serve as a proof of concept for a feature.
Simply attaching it to an issue in Jira will let others try it, and even
if it's never committed to Hadoop it can inform things that will be.
Thanks,
