Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-8643:
-------------------------------------

Can you also add a comment to ProxyUserAuthenticator saying that it is no longer necessary to use it with webhcat (0.14 release onwards).
Also, the comment block can you use the oracle java style (the IDE should be able to do it for you)  -

> webhcat handles DDL command by forking to 'hcat', i.e. HCatCli
> This starts a session.
> SessionState.start() creates scratch dir based on current user name
> via startSs.createSessionDirs(sessionUGI.getShortUserName());
> This UGI is not aware of doAs param, so the name of the dir always ends up 'hcat', but because a delegation token is generated in WebHCat for HDFS access, the owner of the scratch dir is the calling user.  Thus next time a session is started (because of a new DDL call from different user), it ends up trying to use the same scratch dir but cannot as it has 700 permission set.
> We need to pass in doAs user into SessionState
