-------------------------------------------
[~chris.douglas]
Thank You for info.
Yes, we have observed it being returning null.
{noformat}
In the cases we found (though this wasn't exhaustive), clients that used
locations requested the locations in the first request (receiving
LocatedFileStatus), not using 2 RPCs.
{noformat}
So, I need to call this makeQualifiedLocated
((LocatedFileStatus) file).makeQualifiedLocated(URI defaultUri,path) and then
call
((LocatedFileStatus) file).getBlockLocations();
And now need to remove the code of using
{noformat}
(file instanceof LocatedFileStatus)
{noformat}
as now it can't distiniguish whether it needs an RPC call, so we need to
directly call fs.getFileBlockLocations?
{code:java}
As from code comments, it is mentioned
/**
* This function is used to transform the underlying HDFS LocatedBlocks to
* BlockLocations. This method must be invoked before
* {@link #getBlockLocations()}.
**/
{code}

> {{HdfsLocatedFileStatus}} is a subtype of {{HdfsFileStatus}}, but not of
> {{LocatedFileStatus}}. Conversion requires copying common fields and shedding
> unknown data. It would be cleaner and sufficient for {{HdfsFileStatus}} to
> extend {{LocatedFileStatus}}.
