Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-11031:
----------------------------------------
Hi [~lmccay]. Patch v002 is looking better to me. It looks like this has
addressed points 1, 2 and 5 from my prior comment. That leaves 3, 4 and 6 as
open issues to be addressed (or let me know if you disagree with any of them).
To recap, here is a copy-paste:
3. Where the {{Configuration#getPassword}} method is mentioned, we can make it
a hyperlink to the JavaDocs.
4. The document mentions that it will cover "how to create custom providers"
and "an example of its use will be included", but I didn't find that. I assume
it just wasn't done yet, so please consider adding it in the next patch
revision. I also think it's acceptable to drop the mention of it and defer that
kind of deep customization to a later patch. I think the initial goal here was
to make basic usage easier to understand.
6. I think we should discuss how to control the keystore password for the jceks
provider ({{HADOOP_CREDSTORE_PASSWORD}} environment variable or
{{hadoop.security.credstore.java-keystore-provider.password-file}}
configuration property if not in environment).
