---------------------------------------------
Summary: Augmenting Configuration to accomodate <description>
Key: HADOOP-12021
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12021
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: conf
Reporter: Lewis John McGibbney
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.3.0, 2.8.0
Over on the
[common-dev|http://www.mail-archive.com/common-dev%40hadoop.apache.org/msg16099.html]
ML I explained a use case which requires me to obtain the value of the
Configuration <description> tags.
[~cnauroth] advised me to raise the issue to Jira for discussion.
I am happy to provide a patch so that the <description> values are parsed out
of the various XML files and stored, and also that the Configuration class is
augmented to provide accessors to accommodate the use case.
I wanted to find out what people think about this one and whether I should
check out Hadoop source and submit a patch. If you guys could provide some
advice it would be appreciated.
