Rajat Khandelwal resolved HIVE-11507. ------------------------------------- Resolution: Not A Problem Currently custom class is instantiated with no args. The change enables searching a constructor with hiveconf and falls back to default constructor. So essentially custom provider can take a conf and configure itself. But there’s already a way to do that, the implementation can implement configurable. ReflectionUtil.newInstance() takes care of rest > Allow Custom Authentication Provider to take HiveConf Argument > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-11507 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-11507 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Rajat Khandelwal > Assignee: Rajat Khandelwal > Attachments: HIVE-11507.01.patch > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
