Arun C Murthy updated HADOOP-9984: ---------------------------------- Target Version/s: 2.1.2-beta (was: 2.1.1-beta) > FileSystem#listStatus should resolve symlinks by default > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-9984 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9984 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: fs > Affects Versions: 2.1.0-beta > Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe > Assignee: Colin Patrick McCabe > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: HADOOP-9984.001.patch > > > During the process of adding symlink support to FileSystem, we realized that > many existing HDFS clients would be broken by listStatus and globStatus > returning symlinks. One example is applications that assume that > !FileStatus#isFile implies that the inode is a directory. As we discussed in > HADOOP-9972 and HADOOP-9912, we should default these APIs to returning > resolved paths. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
