Infer Schema option for files on Windows

Implement Infer Schema options when connecting to files when TDV is running in a Windows environment.

  • File-Delimited adapter cannot infer schema when introspecting CSV files.

  • TDV documentation says that this is possible with the Local File Storage adapter, but the local file storage adapter cannot be used in Windows environment due to Hadoop issue.

    We recommend using the Local File Storage adapter on Linux. We are unlikely to implement this functionality on the File-Delimited adapter because it will not benefit most customers.
