Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-2919:
-------------------------------------
Working on the libhdfs bindings can be a cumbersome due to long iteration
cycles with the Dockerfile. In the past I have used the Apache Impala
development environment to run a local mini-HDFS cluster on my host; it might
be useful to write some instructions on the wiki about a minimal setup to run
HDFS either in a Docker container or in normal user-space

> [C++] Improve error message when listing empty HDFS file
> --------------------------------------------------------

> Key: ARROW-2919
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-2919
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++
> Affects Versions: 0.9.0
> Reporter: Manu Zhang
> Assignee: Wes McKinney
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: hdfs
> Fix For: 0.12.0

> Currently, listing empty HDFS file returns "list directory failed" which
> doesn't help much for users. An improvement would be like "list $file_path
> failed: No such or file directory", the error message that HDFS command
> "hadoop fs -ls" returns on empty file.
