Owen O'Malley updated HADOOP-1197:
----------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
This patch deprecates the offending methods. It also adds a method "getRaw"
that returns the value from the config without variable replacements being
done. (Some of the code was using the fact that get(String, Object) wasn't do
replacement.) It also replaces a couple spots where dfs was putting an
enumeration in to the config using these methods.
> The misleading Configuration.set(String, Object) should be removed

> Key: HADOOP-1197
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1197
> Project: Hadoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: conf
> Affects Versions: 0.12.2
> Reporter: Owen O'Malley
> Assigned To: Owen O'Malley
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.14.0
>
>
> I think that the confusing methods in Configuration:
> set(String, Object)
> getObject(String)
> get(String, Object)
> should be deprecated. Users expect them to work and in a distributed
> environment, there is almost no way to make them work correctly. If some user
> really needs the functionality, we should implement it right and require that
> the objects be Writable and serialize them into the Configuration.
> Thoughts?
