                 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.
