Kurtis Heimerl commented on HADOOP-1298: ---------------------------------------- I'll go through those in order. I think the first is a valid point. I think the problem is in the existing API though. I don't need the array of file listings either though, and grabbing the 0th one seems like a hack. I also think opening the file seems to heavy-weight. Second-> Why? We could move rename, delete, exists and a bunch of other methods under one header as well, but it just confuses the code. Since these will need to be multiplexed at a lower level, why not keep the code path clean and obvious? 3-> again, why? If we're going to do that, we can move most of the methods like that. 4-> will do 5-> good point. I'll look at that too. > adding user info to file > ------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-1298 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1298 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: dfs, fs > Reporter: Kurtis Heimerl > Attachments: hadoop-user-munncha.patch, hadoop-user-munncha.patch, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch, hadoop-user-munncha.patch4, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch5, hadoop-user-munncha.patch6, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch7, hadoop-user-munncha.patch8, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch9 > > > I'm working on adding a permissions model to hadoop's DFS.
