Thejas M Nair created HDFS-4321: ----------------------------------- Summary: FileSystem class should override .equals(Object) Key: HDFS-4321 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4321 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 1.1.1 Reporter: Thejas M Nair
The FileSystem class has a notion of equality, based on the uri. The class should override .equal(Object) so that it returns true if FileSystem objects are logically same. This is useful when FileSystem cache is disabled, as FileSystem.get(..) will return new object each time. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
