Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-4365:
--------------------------------------
JobConf will soon go away, with HADOOP-1230.
That said, letting folks override getProps() sounds fine. This revives the
spirit of HADOOP-24.
> Configuration.getProps() should be made protected for ease of overriding

> Key: HADOOP-4365
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4365
> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: conf
> Affects Versions: 0.20.0
> Reporter: Steve Loughran
>
> HADOOP-4293 does make Configuration cleaner and easier to work with, but it
> does contain assumptions about how configurations are represented (in a
> private Properties instance) that subclasses may wish to diverge from.
> By making getProps() protected, people who subclass JobConf or Configuration
> can do their own binding from configuration data to Properties.
