Gerrit Jansen van Vuuren updated PIG-1117:
------------------------------------------

    Attachment: PIG-1117-0.7.0-new.patch


I've redone the HiveColumnarLoader to use the new Load Store APIs. The Loader 
was much easier to implement using this. The HiveColumnarLoader now uses the 
RCRecordReader and FileInputFormat to read data and calculate splits, this 
makes it alot cleaner. 

The build.xml has been edited also to download the hive0.4.1 exec.jar into the 
piggybank/java/lib/ directory, it only does so if the hive-0.4.1-exec.jar is 
not present, so the download is done once.

> I've coded a LoadFunc implementation that can read from Hive Columnar RC 
> tables, this is needed for a project that I'm working on because all our data 
> is stored using the Hive thrift serialized Columnar RC format. I have looked 
> at the piggy bank but did not find any implementation that could do this. 
> We've been running it on our cluster for the last week and have worked out 
> most bugs.
>  
> There are still some improvements to be done but I would need  like setting 
> the amount of mappers based on date partitioning. Its been optimized so as to 
> read only specific columns and can churn through a data set almost 8 times 
> faster with this improvement because not all column data is read.
> I would like to contribute the class to the piggybank can you guide me in 
> what I need to do?
> I've used hive specific classes to implement this, is it possible to add this 
> to the piggy bank build ivy for automatic download of the dependencies?
