Hello all As per https://github.com/apache/accumulo/blob/master/docs/src/main/asciidoc/chapters/iterator_design.txt " Implementations of Iterator might be tempted to open BatchWriters inside of an Iterator as a means to implement triggers for writing additional data outside of their client application. The lifecycle of an Iterator is *not* managed in such a way that guarantees that this is safe nor efficient. Specifically, there is no way to guarantee that the internal ThreadPool inside of the BatchWriter is closed (and the thread(s) are reaped) without calling the close() method. `close`'ing and recreating a `BatchWriter` after every Key-Value pair is also prohibitively performance limiting to be considered an option."
If I need to write a subset of records generated from an iterator to a file/table, I can't use a batch writer inside of an iterator? Is there any other way to go about it? Best regards, Yamini Joshi
