> suggests that ColumnChunk data should be followed by ColumnChunkMetaData.
> However it looks like parquet-mr doesn't write ColumnMetaData after Columns at all and populates ColumnChunk.file_offset with an offset of the first data page:
> from *ParquetMetadataConverter.java:153*:
> {code}
>     for (ColumnChunkMetaData columnMetaData : columns) {
>       ColumnChunk columnChunk = new ColumnChunk(columnMetaData.getFirstDataPageOffset()); // verify this is the right offset
>       columnChunk.file_path = block.getPath(); // they are in the same file for now
> {code}
>  Is it a bug in parquet-mr or in the documentation?
