Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-2381: -------------------------------------- I forgot to extend Writable inteface for Local FileStatus. ShellCommand does not have an interface to get to return code. I think it will be a useful feature to have. We can throw a subclass of IOException. > Perhaps we should leave this to a subsequent issue? yes. Currently listStatus does not use an external command, just File.list(). Currently only '-ls' actually looks at these properties for LocalFS. If we find more places, we can add optimizations. > Support permission information in FileStatus > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2381 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2381 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: fs > Affects Versions: 0.15.0 > Reporter: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE > Assignee: Raghu Angadi > Fix For: 0.16.0 > > Attachments: 2381_20071207.patch, HADOOP-2381.patch, > HADOOP-2381.patch, HADOOP-2381.patch, HADOOP-2381.patch > > > In HADOOP-2288, FileSystem API is changed to support access control. > FileStatus should also be changed to support permission information. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
