[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-344?page=comments#action_12423007 ] Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-344: -------------------------------------
> there are 2 other places that already pass canonical paths Wouldn't it be better to change these? That would minimize code replication, a good thing. > TaskTracker passes incorrect file path to DF under cygwin > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-344 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-344 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.4.0 > Environment: Windows > Reporter: Konstantin Shvachko > Assigned To: Konstantin Shvachko > Attachments: TaskTrackerDF.patch > > > The path that is passed is OS dependent. The File abstraction should be used > in order to make it universal. > I'm attaching a patch that does that. > We might want to change the path parameter for DF. Making it File rather than > String should prevent us from > bugs like that in the future. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
