Owen O'Malley updated HIVE-6060: -------------------------------- Attachment: acid-io.patch This is still a work in progress, but it shows the path: * Adds AcidInputFormat and AcidOutputFormat interfaces for input/output formats that can support the acid requirements. * Extends OrcInputFormat and OrcOutputFormat to implement the interfaces. * Adds AcidUtils that provides general routines to analyze the partition directory and figure out which base and deltas to use. * Doesn't change the behavior of the insert commands, which will still write the traditional hive file layout. This will change later when we add command support. * The input format in getsplits will detect whether there are new or old style layouts and read them appropriately. * Java clients can write the new layout by using the RecordUpdater interface. * There are raw interfaces for the compactor to use. > Define API for RecordUpdater and UpdateReader > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-6060 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6060 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Assignee: Owen O'Malley > Attachments: acid-io.patch, h-5317.patch, h-5317.patch, h-5317.patch, > h-6060.patch > > > We need to define some new APIs for how Hive interacts with the file formats > since it needs to be much richer than the current RecordReader and > RecordWriter. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
