Zhe Zhang commented on HDFS-7889: --------------------------------- Thanks Bo for the update and Vinay for the thorough review! I agree that we should keep {{newStreamForCreate}} in {{DFSOutputStream}} to minimize code change at this stage. I agree with Vinay that letting a super class create an instance of its subclass is a good pattern in general. However, our current {{DFSOutputStream}} class only represents contiguous input streams. On the conceptual level it is not the parent of {{DFSStripedInputStream}}. Ideally, in the future we should have a common super class for contiguous and striped input streams. At that time that super class should contain the {{newStreamForCreate}} logic. We can do this refactor as a follow-on. Will post my review of 007 patch soon. > Subclass DFSOutputStream to support writing striping layout files > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-7889 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7889 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Li Bo > Assignee: Li Bo > Attachments: HDFS-7889-001.patch, HDFS-7889-002.patch, > HDFS-7889-003.patch, HDFS-7889-004.patch, HDFS-7889-005.patch, > HDFS-7889-006.patch, HDFS-7889-007.patch > > > After HDFS-7888, we can subclass {{DFSOutputStream}} to support writing > striping layout files. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
