Tom White updated HADOOP-3497:
------------------------------
Release Note: Changed the semantics of file globbing with a PathFilter
(using the globStatus method of FileSystem). Previously, the filtering was too
restrictive, so that a glob of /*/* and a filter that only accepts /a/b would
not have matched /a/b. With this change /a/b does match.
Hadoop Flags: [Incompatible change]
> File globbing with a PathFilter is too restrictive

> Key: HADOOP-3497
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3497
> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 0.17.0
> Reporter: Tom White
> Attachments: hadoop-3497-test.patch, hadoop-3497.patch

>
> Consider the file hierarchy
> {noformat}
> /a
> /a/b
> {noformat}
> Calling the globStatus method on FileSystem with a path of
> {noformat}/*/*{noformat} and a PathFilter that only accepts {{/a/b}} returns
> no matches. It should return a single match: {{/a/b}}.
