Arun C Murthy commented on HADOOP-1425:
---------------------------------------
I'm with Raghu on this one...
One option would add a convenience method (in Configuration.java?) to parse the
generic arguments to build the Configuration and return a String[] of the
non-generic arguments... that would also solve one of my peeves with ToolBase:
$ BigMapOutput -D parameter=value -input <path> -output <path>
works, whereas:
$ BigMapOutput -input <path> -output <path> -D parameter=value
doesnt work as expected (i.e. the config doesn't have the parameter set to the
value).
> Rework the various programs in 'examples' to extend ToolBase
