Provide method to determine if a deprecated key was set in the config file --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-6252 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6252 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Improvement Components: conf Affects Versions: 0.21.0 Reporter: Jakob Homan Assignee: Jakob Homan HADOOP-6105 provided a method to deprecate config keys and transparently refer to the new key. However, it didn't provide a method to see if the deprecated key had been used in the config file. This is useful when, if the deprecated key had been used, its value needs to be converted before use, for instance when we changed the umask format. A method like "boolean wasDeprecatedKeySet()" would be great. Patch shortly. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
