Peter Vary commented on HIVE-20580:
-----------------------------------
[~ashutoshc]: isOriginal(Footer) is called from
{{org.apache.hadoop.hive.llap.io.metadata.OrcFileMetadata}} consturcor to set
the {{isOriginalFormat}} attribute, which in turn is used for the
implementation of the {{org.apache.orc.FileMetadata.isOriginalFormat()}} method:
{code:java}
public final class OrcFileMetadata implements FileMetadata,
ConsumerFileMetadata {
[..]
public OrcFileMetadata(Object fileKey, OrcProto.Footer footer,
OrcProto.PostScript ps,
List<StripeStatistics> stats, List<StripeInformation> stripes, final
OrcFile.Version fileVersion) {
[..]
this.isOriginalFormat = OrcInputFormat.isOriginal(footer);
[..]
}
[..]
@Override
public boolean isOriginalFormat() {
return isOriginalFormat;
}
[..]
}{code}
Shall the {{OrcFileMetadata.isOriginalFormat()}} method throw an
\{{java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException}} instead?
Thanks,
Peter
> OrcInputFormat.isOriginal() should not rely on hive.acid.key.index

>
> {{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.
