I agree it is not manageable to have multiple files but there are two main
reasons for introducing this new file.
- Yarn properties file is stored in /tmp location which is accessible to
all the users. We want to store the secure cookie in user home location to
prevent cookie leak
- Current implementation of Yarn properties file does not take multiple
applications (Yarn application ID) in to account which is resolved using the
ini file implementation.
