------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HCATALOG-297
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-297
             Project: HCatalog
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: security
    Affects Versions: 0.4
            Reporter: Rohini Palaniswamy
            Assignee: Sushanth Sowmyan


To talk to external systems like hbase, delegation tokens have to be added to 
the JobConf Credentials object. In case of OutputFormat, this can be done in 
checkOutputSpecs. But in case of input, the getSplits() cannot be used as the 
JobConf passed is only readable. Need a solution to pass job credentials to the 
job in that case.
