[jira] [Updated] (HBASE-4065) TableOutputFormat ignores failure to create table instance

["Brock Noland (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4065?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Brock Noland updated HBASE-4065:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: HBASE-4065.1.patch

Attached throws a RumtimeException since ZKUtil.applyClusterKeyToConf also throws IOException and probably belongs in setConf. Also this throws the error earlier in the process.

> If TableOutputFormat in the new API fails to create a table, it simply logs this at ERROR level and then continues on its way. Then, the first write() to the table will throw a NPE since table hasn't been set.
> Instead, it should probably rethrow the exception as a RuntimeException in setConf, or do what the old-API TOF does and not create the HTable instance until getRecordWriter, where it can throw an IOE.
