Andrew Wang commented on HADOOP-10793:
--------------------------------------
How about this:
- We do single-dash for Key/CredShell in branch-2
- File a new JIRA for trunk to switch everything over to some new style
This way we have consistency in branch-2 and consistency in trunk. I'd like all
commands to behave the same way.
Metapoint, I think that accepting both - and -- as the same is not great, since
it's inventing our own new style. It's neither UNIX-style long and short args,
nor Java/Hadoop-style single-dash always. I'd like to stick with something with
at least some precedent.
> KeyShell and CredentialShell args should use single-dash style

> Key: HADOOP-10793
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10793
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: security
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Mike Yoder
>
> Follow-on from HADOOP-10736 as per [~andrew.wang] - the key shell uses the
> gnu double dash style for command line args, while other command line
> programs use a single dash. Consider changing this, and consider another
> argument parsing scheme, like the CommandLine class.
