Ari Rabkin commented on CHUKWA-381:
-----------------------------------

My preferred style is as follows:
For option Foo:

public static final String FOO_OPT = "component.subcomponent.option"
int FOO = defaultFoo;

in conf method:
FOO = conf.getInt(FOO_OPT, FOO).

Code that sets or reads the option should use the _OPT, rather than the actual 
string. This makes it possible to rename options.  This style also leaves the 
default value clearly visible in one place.

Thoughts, comments?
