             Summary: BlockWriter for writing the part files into the specified 
directory
                 Key: APEXMALHAR-2484
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXMALHAR-2484
             Project: Apache Apex Malhar
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Chaitanya
            Assignee: Chaitanya


Use case: Suppose, the size of source file (f1.txt) is 1 GB and the block size 
is 128 MB. I want to copy the file in destination as follows:
f1.txt.part1
f2.txt.part2
....
By default, size of each part file is 128 MB except the last part.

Design: Currently, the BlockWriter is restricted to write the part files into 
the HDFS on which the app is running. To achieve the above use case, operator 
needs the block index and relative path information. BlockMetadata which is the 
input port for the BlockWriter doesn't have these information.

So, I am creating the new operator(PartFileWriter) which extends from 
BlockWriter with the input port of type FileMetadata.
