---------------------------------
Summary: Stabilize and document getBlockLocation API in WebHDFS
Key: HDFS-7590
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7590
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Components: webhdfs
Affects Versions: 2.6.0
Reporter: Jakob Homan
Currently the GET_BLOCK_LOCATIONS op is marked as private, unstable and is not
documented in the WebHDFS web page. The getBlockLocations is a public, stable
API on FileSystem. WebHDFS' GBL response is private-unstable because the API
currently directly serializes out the LocatedBlocks instance and LocatedBlocks
is private-unstable.
A public-stable version of the response should be agreed upon and documented.
