Owen O'Malley updated HADOOP-1474:
----------------------------------
Description:
Hi,
We wish to add the following interface:
interface Submittable{
RunningJob submitJob(JobConf jc);
}
Currently there is no clean way to monitor a submitted job programatically, one
way would be to call main, and parse the output to figure out Jobid, and then
monitor it using a JobClient. Currently the only way RunJar can run a Class in
a Jar file is using main.invoke().
The purpose of this interface is to be able to programatically call the class
that extends this interface via another Class (similar to RunJar) and still be
able to monitor it like JobClient does.
Essentially, all the functionality within a main class would be encapsulated
within this method such as implementing constraints between various user
defined job.xml keys.
The purpose of main would be reduced to parsing arguments, setting the JobConf
and calling this function.

I discussed this with Milind and Owen and they agreed that such an interface
should exist.
