Roger Whitcomb commented on VFS-523:
------------------------------------
I've just now (sorry for the LONG delay) tested head revs (with the
"unify-hdfs-equals.patch") in our application and everything seems to be
working as expected. I guess I'm still a little skeptical that this approach
is solid, though, since (I think) we're relying on the caching mechanism in
order to always get the same object so the default Object.equals works right.
Although, for the moment I don't see any problems in actual operation.

> 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
> Assignee: Bernd Eckenfels
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: hdfs
> Fix For: 2.1
>
> Attachments: hdfsequal.diff, unify-hdfs-equals.patch

>
> 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.
