Michael commented on HIVE-6616: ------------------------------- You are correct about creating a new issue for simple classes. Still, I believe that maintaining clear documentation for everything (including ORC format) is the correct way. > Document ORC file format to enable development of external converters to/from > ORC/text files > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-6616 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6616 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: File Formats > Affects Versions: 0.11.0, 0.12.0 > Reporter: Michael > > Please document the structure of ORC file in a way that it allow writing and > reading such a file by external software.
