Greetings, Over on the Nutch dev list there's been a bit of chatter about files/folders generated by Hadoop (generally speaking 0.17) such as '_logs'. Digging through Hadoop a bit revealed that there is a private hiddenFileFilter in FileInputFilter.java. This is similar to what I came up with here: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg08214.html
I couldn't find any other mention of "hidden" files in the Hadoop codebase or the wiki and little on the mailing lists. Is there a defined standard for hidden files or a public interface for determining file visibility? Thanks! -lincoln -- lincolnritter.com
