Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-1859: -------------------------------------- What should it do? I always thought it was an error to call any method on a stream after it is closed. NullPointerException isn't the most friendly. Perhaps it should be IllegalOperationException. Is that what you want? > FSInputDataStream.getPos throws null pointer exception when file has been > closed > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1859 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1859 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: fs > Affects Versions: 0.14.1 > Reporter: Benjamin Reed > > If an FSInputDataStream object has been closed, invoking getPos() will cause > a NullPointerException. This is because BufferedInputStream.close() sets in > to null, and Buffer.getPos() does not check for in being null. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
