Tool interface should also support getUsage() ---------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-6866 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6866 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Amar Kamat Currently each and every _tool_ implementing the {{Tool}} interface is forced to manage their usage string. Since its a common piece of code, its better we factor it out. This can be useful in the following ways # A proper lib like support for usage strings # Forcing _tools_ (implementers of {{Tool}}) to expose their usage string # Test cases can now use these well defined and exposed usage strings to test -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
