             Summary: Add more ways to specify alternate HDFS configuration 
information
                 Key: VFS-586
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-586
             Project: Commons VFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.1
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.1


In trying to resolve some customer issues we were experiencing, it was 
necessary to specify some alternate HDFS configuration information from some 
places other than resources in the current classpath, plus needing to specify 
multiple configurations (such as a local copy of "core-site.xml" and 
"hdfs-site.xml").  To accomplish this I have proposed some changes to 
HdfsFileSystemConfigBuilder.java and HdfsFileSystem.java to be able to specify 
alternate configurations from all the possible sources (as defined in 
org.apache.hadoop.fs.Configuration), namely from a named resource, from a local 
file Path, from an InputStream and from another Configuration object.  For 
resource names and local files, multiple entries are allowed so that multiple 
configuration files can be specified as needed.
