Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-1601: -------------------------------------- I'd rather keep it separate from this patch. I'll commit this without that change, unless someone objects. > GenericWritable should use ReflectionUtils.newInstance to avoid problems with > classloaders > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-1601 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1601 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: io > Affects Versions: 0.15.0 > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Assignee: Enis Soztutar > Fix For: 0.15.0 > > Attachments: genericWritable_v1.0.patch, genericWritable_v1.1.patch, > genericWritable_v1.2-sortFiles.patch > > > GenericWritable currently uses Class.newInstance and it should use > hadoop.utils.ReflectionUtils.newInstance. Furthermore, GenericWritable should > be Configurable and should configure the nested objects. This will prevent a > lot of classloader issues and allow the objects to get a configuration. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
