Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-4365:
--------------------------------------
This needs some javadoc, but other than that seems fine.
Longer-term, should we replace 'new Configuration()' with a factory API? Would
that help you at all? Or does that just move the problem?
> Configuration.getProps() should be made protected for ease of overriding

> 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.
