ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-1389:
---------------------------------------
Github user rmetzger commented on the pull request:
https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/301#issuecomment-71434721
The user who requested this feature actually asked for a custom method to
overwrite.
There is one more important use-case for a custom method: If users want to
have files named exactly like hadoop, they also need a method. Hadoop is using
6-digit numbers, filled up with zeroes (for example part-m-000001).
I'm tired of changing the pull request until everybody is happy. Its very
inefficient and I have better stuff to do with my time. If you want, you can
change the code once its merged, but I have rewritten this 3 times now.
