Bernd Eckenfels commented on VFS-523:
-------------------------------------
I propose to commit the removal of equals/hashcode for this implementation. We
can open another bug to think about adding a better abstract implementation.
However the better defined semantic is (do)isSameFile which is also strangely
implenmted for Hdfs. Do you think your usecase actually needs a "is equal"
assertion (or does it only care about "not equal" as reported).
> HdfsFileObject equals method returns true for the same path on different hosts

> Key: VFS-523
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-523
> Project: Commons VFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.1
> Environment: Windows 7
> Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: hdfs
> Fix For: 2.1

> Attachments: hdfsequal.diff

>
> If I construct two HdfsFileObject referring to the same path (for instance,
> "/") but on different hosts, the "equals" method will consider them equal
> (and the "hashCode" method will give the same results for both) even though
> they clearly refer to different files since they are on different hosts.
> These two methods should also factor in the HdfsFileSystem to the equation.
