Stringifier
-----------
Key: HADOOP-3048
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3048
Project: Hadoop Core
Issue Type: New Feature
Affects Versions: 0.17.0
Reporter: Enis Soztutar
Assignee: Enis Soztutar
Fix For: 0.17.0
Storing arbitrary objects in the configuration has been discussed before in
HADOOP-449 and HADOOP-1873. Although enabling such functionality has the risk
of encouraging people to put big binary objects in the configuration, for some
use cases passing objects to tasks is absolutely necessary.
This issue will track the implementation of a Stringifier interface which
stringifies and destringifies objects. Using this implementation, developers
can store objects in the configuration and restore them later.
Any thoughts ?
