Summary: TableOutputFormat#getRecordWriter javadoc misleads
Key: HBASE-14574
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14574
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: stack
Some feedback from a user was that it was not plain that getRecordWriter
returns a NEW instance on each invocation. The base Interface javadoc on
OutputWriter would seem to indicate there is one instance for a whole 'job'...
That is not what we do. So, just reading the javadoc, you'd not bother with
closing the returned record writer since the framework will do the close up for
you; thats what the javadoc implies. This made it so it seemed hbase was losing
writes.
Lets fix in javadoc at least.
