Tom White commented on HADOOP-7549: ----------------------------------- +1 This looks good to me. Existing configurations will still work with this patch, so there are no compatibility concerns. > Use JDK ServiceLoader mechanism to find FileSystem implementations > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-7549 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7549 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: fs > Affects Versions: 0.23.0 > Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur > Assignee: Alejandro Abdelnur > Fix For: 0.24.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-7549v1.patch, HADOOP-7549v2.patch, > HADOOP-7549v3.patch > > > Currently configuring FileSystem implementations must be done by declaring > the FileSystem class in the Hadoop configuration files (core-default.xml, > ...). > Using JDK ServiceLoader mechanism this configuration step can be avoided. > Adding the JAR file with the additional FileSystem implementation would > suffice. > This is similar to what is being proposed for compression codecs > (HADOOP-7350). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
