[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-3250) Extend FileSystem API to allow appending to files

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3250?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12588756#action_12588756 ] 

dhruba borthakur commented on HADOOP-3250:
------------------------------------------

One option for this API would be a new method in the FileSystem.open() that takes in the pathname to be opened (and permissions, etc) and returns an FSDataOutputStream. The next write into this stream will occur at the end of the file.
