GAO Rui commented on HDFS-7661:
-------------------------------

Hi [~zhz]. I try to read a EC file which is being written, and it seems that 
read support of being written EC file has already been finished in current 
version of HDFS-7285. I touched a 10GB file named {{ecTestFile}} from terminal 
by this command {{$dd if=/dev/urandom of=%path%/ecTestFile bs=100MB count=100 
oflag=direct}}. Then, write it into HDFS by {{$%hadoop_path%/hdfs --config 
%hadoop_config_path% dfs -copyFromLocal %path%/ecTestFile %hdfs_ecZone_path%}}. 
While being written, in ecZone,  file {{ecTestFile.\_COPYING_}} can be read by 
{{$%hadoop_path%/hdfs --config %hadoop_config_path% dfs -cat 
%hdfs_ecZone_path%/ecTestFile.\_COPYING_}}. Does it means "Support read when a 
EC file is being written" has already been finished? Or in the writing process, 
it should be possible to read the file by  {{$%hadoop_path%/hdfs --config 
%hadoop_config_path% dfs -cat %hdfs_ecZone_path%/ecTestFile}}?
