Summary: Support reading new data in a being written file untill the file is closed Key: HDFS-6633 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6633 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: New Feature Components: hdfs-client Reporter: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze Assignee: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze When a file is being written, the file length keeps increasing. If the file is opened for read, the reader first gets the file length and then read only up to that length. The reader will not be able to read the new data written afterward. We propose adding a new feature so that readers will be able to read all the data until the writer closes the file. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
