Peter Vary commented on HIVE-20580:
-----------------------------------
[~ekoifman]: Could you please check my approach? I would like to have the
confirmation that the original intention was for the {{isOriginal}} to return
true for Non-ACID ORC files, and false for ACID files. The {{isOriginal(Reader
file)}} reflects this, but the {{isOriginal(Footer footer)}} returns the
opposite results without the patch. Is my assumption correct and both methods
should behave in the same way and return false for the ACID files?
Thanks,
Peter

> {{org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.orc.OrcInputFormat.isOriginal()}} is checking
> for presence of {{hive.acid.key.index}} in the footer. This is only created
> when the file is written by {{OrcRecordUpdater}}. It should instead check
> for presence of Acid metadata columns so that a file can be produced by
> something other than {{OrcRecordUpater}}.
> Also, {{hive.acid.key.index}} counts number of different type of events which
> is not really useful for Acid V2 (as of Hive 3) since each file only has 1
> type of event.
