[jira] Created: (HADOOP-938) too many SequenceFile.createWriter() methods

too many SequenceFile.createWriter() methods
--------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-938
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-938
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Doug Cutting


There are too many SequenceFile.createWriter() method signatures.  This method has two required paramters: a Configuration and a Path.  It has one obsolete parameter: a FileSystem.  And it has five optional parameters: CompressionType, CompressionCodec, Progress, replication, and metadata.

We should remove the obsolete parameter and make all optional parameters into setters.
