Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE updated HDFS-4177:
-----------------------------------------
Attachment: h4177_20121112b.patch
h4177_20121112b.patch: updates the javadoc for getChildrenList(Snapshot),
getLatestSnapshot() and getPathSnapshot(); and fixes the long line.
The reason of adding ReadOnlyList is that we are going to use diffs to maintain
snapshots, therefore, actual snapshot children lists are not available at
runtime. With ReadOnlyList, we could use diffs and the current children list
to provide a logical children list view. I am going to implement it in the
next patch.
Since the current patch only adds the ReadOnlyList interface with trivial
java.util.List impelementaton. Let's add tests on the next patch. Sound good?
> Add a snapshot parameter to INodeDirectory.getChildrenList()

> With the snapshot features, the children list of directories can be different
> in snapshots and the current view. The snapshot information is required to
> select the children list.
