> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Sinks+Sources
> Affects Versions: v1.0.0, v1.1.0
> Reporter: Jarek Jarcec Cecho

> Currently user can specify both file type (SequenceFile, DataStream, ...) and
> writable format (Text ~ append new line character, Writable ~ serialize as
> is) of HDFS sink output file. Both properties have default values, however
> when user redefine only file type to DataStream, flume will still use default
> Writable writable format that will not append separate serialized events with
> new line character.
> Would be nice if flume would choose default value of writable format based on
> current file type, so that for example for DataStream file type, default
> writable format would be Text instead of Writable. I believe that would lead
> to less confused users.
