Yongjun Zhang commented on HDFS-6531:
-------------------------------------
Thanks for the linking and sharing, [~cnauroth]. Certainly a more systematic
approach with JDK7 in HADOOP-9590. Haven't got to work on this one yet, good to
know the other thread.
> Create a native api to delete file, like the renameTo method in NativeIO, for
> better error reporting

> Affects Versions: 2.4.0
> Reporter: Yongjun Zhang
> Assignee: Yongjun Zhang
>
> File.delete() returns boolean to indicate success or failure.
> As a follow-up of HDFS-6499, filing this jira to provide a native API to
> delete file, like the renameTo method in NativeIO. So caller can tell better
> what's the reason of failure.
> And fix FileJournalManager etc places for better error reporting.
> Thanks [~atm] for reviewing the fix of HDFS-6499 and pointing out this issue.
