Arun C Murthy commented on HADOOP-2268: --------------------------------------- bq. So this patch is getting cancelled for the fact that I removed two blank lines? Uh no, this isn't about the blank lines, I agree they are improvements... The issue is the indentation with this piece: {noformat} - private static ArrayList<Job> toArrayList(Hashtable<String, Job> jobs) { + private static ArrayList<Job> toArrayList(Map<String, Job> jobs) { {noformat} Sure, it appears very minor, but we've been bitten before (HADOOP-1148) and we'd rather not do that again... hope you understand. bq. As for the bigger picture [...] Yes, like I said, it was an attempt to get everyone to reconsider folks that what you had done earlier is probably the only choice... nothing against the patch. I agree a minor improvement is good enough, I'm pushing for bigger ones too - still hoping. > JobControl classes should use interfaces rather than implemenations > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2268 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2268 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Affects Versions: 0.15.0 > Reporter: Adrian Woodhead > Assignee: Adrian Woodhead > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.16.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-2268-1.patch, HADOOP-2268-2.patch, > HADOOP-2268-3.patch > > > See HADOOP-2202 for background on this issue. Arun C. Murthy agrees that when > possible it is preferable to program against the interface rather than a > concrete implementation (more flexible, allows for changes of the > implementation in future etc.) JobControl currently exposes running, waiting, > ready, successful and dependent jobs as ArrayList rather than List. I propose > to change this to List. > I will code up a patch for this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
