Chris Douglas commented on HADOOP-5333:
---------------------------------------
bq. But since libhdfs is a library and there are no "main" methods, can you
suggest which "initialization" method might create the JVM?
I can't. I don't know enough about libhdfs, nor do I know any clever ways to
trap init generally.
bq. I can create a different lock solely for this initialization
That seems reasonable. If there were other globals to be initialized, adding
the missing hdfs_init (or whatever) might make sense, but a separate lock is
probably sufficient.
