--------------------------------
Summary: HCatReader/Writer should hide Hadoop and Hive classes
Key: HIVE-6248
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6248
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: HCatalog
Reporter: Alan Gates
Assignee: Alan Gates
Fix For: 0.13.0
HCat's HCatReader and HCatWriter interfaces expose Hadoop classes Configuration
and InputSplit, as well as HCatInputSplit. This exposes users to changes over
Hadoop or HCatalog versions. It also makes it harder to some day move this
interface to use WebHCat, which we'd like to do. The eventual goal is for this
interface to not require any other jars (no Hadoop, Hive, etc.) As a first
step to this the references to Hadoop and HCat classes in the interface should
be hidden.
