Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-2381: ------------------------------------------------ > I am not so comfortable with the readFields() problem. I suggest the following: {code} //in FileStatus public final void write(DataOutput out) throws IOException { out.writeShort(block_replication); out.writeLong(blocksize); out.writeLong(modification_time); getPermission().write(out); Text.writeString(out, getOwner()); Text.writeString(out, getGroup()); } {code} We should also make FileStatus.readFields(DataInput in) final. > 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, 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.
