Doug Cutting updated HADOOP-673:
--------------------------------

    Status: Open  (was: Patch Available)

This patch changes fullyDelete() to run 'rm -rf'.  We should only rely on unix 
command-line tools when we absolutely must, and I don't think we have to here.  
Instead, before listing a directory, we should compare getAbsoluteFile() to 
getCanonicalFile() to determine whether it's a symbolic link.  If it is a 
symbolic link, then we should ignore it.

Also, perhaps most of the code added to TaskRunner could be instead added to 
DistributedCache, since it's cache-specific stuff?

> the task execution environment should have a current working directory that 
> is task specific

> The tasks should be run in a work directory that is specific to a single 
> task. In particular, I'd suggest using the <local>/jobcache/<jobid>/<taskid> 
> as the current working directory.
