Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-7494:
-------------------------------------
It would be best if {{preprocessOptions}} looped through the args to find the
offset of {{-c}}. This will provide a cleaner implementation of any future
switches that require an argument.
{{Long.parseLong()}} generates an exception in all the cases where special
checks were performed, so they seem unnecessary. Did you find a scenario where
the code snippet I previously posted did not work?
