Benjamin Mahler updated MESOS-796:
----------------------------------
Component/s: replicated log
> org.apache.mesos.Log isn't mockable
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: MESOS-796
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-796
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: java api, replicated log
> Reporter: Suman Karumuri
>
> Currently, the Log class (org.apache.mesos.Log) in the Java API has a static
> initializer that calls MesosNativeLibrary.load(). This static initialization
> causes issues when mocking this class.
> Per JLS, using the Class name shouldn't trigger the static initialization.
> However, the ClassProxy in EasyMock performs some reflection tricks which
> trigger the static initializer. Since the static initializer needs a native
> library which would be otherwise be linked dynamically in it's path, it makes
> our unit tests flaky.
> After considering a few possibilities, the cleanest solution seems to be
> (a) Make org.apache.mesos.Log an interface so users using the Java-API can
> mock the interface. or
> (b) Add a new interface that org.apache.mesos.Log implements, which the
> clients can use for mocking.
