Roger Whitcomb commented on VFS-586:
------------------------------------

I have looked through the HDFS tests and can't really see a place where unit 
tests for this change would be feasible.

Would it be acceptable to commit these changes, since there have been no 
objections?  I'd like to have this code in the release version, since I'm using 
it ....

Thanks.

> 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.
