Denes Arvay commented on FLUME-3146:
------------------------------------

Hi [~jojochuang],

Thank you for your patch.
Isn't it possible to get rid of this reflection-magic alltogether?
Please correct me if I'm wrong but for me it seems that we can get the number 
of replicas only if we have an {{HdfsDataOutputStream}} instance, in all the 
other cases (i.e. {{MockFsDataOutputStream}}) it is not supported, so even with 
the reflection the {{getNumCurrentReplicas}} method won't be found, thus the 
{{getNumCurrentReplicas}} will return {{-1}}.
What do you think?

Thanks,
Denes

> AbstractHDFSWrite#reflectGetNumCurrentReplicas uses a private HDFS API, which 
> causes it to emit an confusing error message:
> {noformat}
> 2017-08-08 22:01:10,743 INFO org.apache.flume.sink.hdfs.AbstractHDFSWriter: 
> FileSystem's output stream doesn't support getNumCurrentReplicas; --HDFS-826 
> not available; fsOut=org.apache.hadoop.crypto.CryptoOutputStream; 
> err=java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: 
> org.apache.hadoop.crypto.CryptoOutputStream.getNumCurrentReplicas()
> 2017-08-08 22:02:11,086 ERROR org.apache.flume.sink.hdfs.AbstractHDFSWriter:

> This error message is emitted even with the most recent version of HDFS that 
> has HDFS-826 for sure.
> Turns out that the relevant code is not valid with HDFS encryption. Instead 
> of using the current private (and deprecated) 
> getNumCurrentReplicas#getNumCurrentReplicas() API, it should use 
> HdfsDataOutputStream#getCurrentBlockReplication, which is a public API and 
> which considers the case of HDFS encryption.
