libhdfs should never exit on its own but rather return errors to the calling
application
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-3963
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3963
Project: Hadoop Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: libhdfs
Reporter: Pete Wyckoff
Priority: Minor
A a library, libhdfs would be better to return errors rather than directly
exiting. This way the calling application can determine what to do on error.
And it is more unix library like to handle errors this way.
Some applications like fuse-dfs need to handle the exit themselves after
emitting an appropriate error message to its log.
