Hong Tang commented on PIG-652:
-------------------------------
>From OutputFormat.java:
{code}
/**
* Get the {...@link RecordWriter} for the given job.
*
* @param ignored
* @param job configuration for the job whose output is being written.
* @param name the unique name for this part of the output.
* @param progress mechanism for reporting progress while writing to file.
* @return a {...@link RecordWriter} to write the output for the job.
* @throws IOException
*/
RecordWriter<K, V> getRecordWriter(FileSystem ignored, JobConf job,
String name, Progressable progress)
throws IOException;
{code}
It does not say that the name is the full path of the file.

> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: impl
> Reporter: Alan Gates
> Assignee: Alan Gates
>
> Pig currently allows users some control over InputFormat via the Slicer and
> Slice interfaces. It does not allow any control over OutputFormat and
> RecordWriter interfaces. It just allows the user to implement a storage
> function that controls how the data is serialized. For hadoop tables, we
> will need to allow custom OutputFormats that prepare output information and
> objects needed by a Table store function.
