Binglin Chang created HADOOP-8985:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Add namespace declarations in .proto files for other
languages
Key: HADOOP-8985
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8985
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Binglin Chang
Priority: Minor
Currently .proto files use java_package to specify java packages in proto
files, but namespace are not specified for other languages such as C++, this
causes name collision in C++. we can add namespace declarations to avoid this.
In Java, the package specifier is used as the Java package, unless you
explicitly provide a option java_package in your .proto file. So the original
java package will not be affected.
About namespace name, how about "hadoop.common"(hadoop::common in C++) for all
common sub-project proto files, and "hadoop.hdfs"(hadoop::hdfs in C++) for all
hdfs sub-project proto files?
