Travis Crawford commented on HCATALOG-497:
------------------------------------------
Can another committer take a look at this patch? I'd love to get this fixed
soon because its broken for people trying to use smallint/tinyint columns.
Thanks!

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-497
> Project: HCatalog
> Issue Type: Bug

>
> HCatContext is a recently added class that provides global configuration
> access, which is very useful to configure static converter classes.
> An issue was discovered running in full MR mode that was missed in the unit
> tests. Since HCatContext has its own configuration object, its never passed
> to tasks on the cluster.
> HCatContext should reuse the job conf which is passed to worker tasks by the
> MR framework, so settings are present in both the FE/BE.
