Description

wrt https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14566?focusedCommentId=15427294&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-15427294

it's better to pass a Context object into tree readers. With that any parameter passing can be added as an interface to Context object which will avoid changing signatures of TreeReaders often.
