> Clean up FileSystem
> -------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-5812
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5812
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0
> Reporter: Stephan Ewen
> Assignee: Stephan Ewen
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.3.0
>
>
> The {{FileSystem}} class is overloaded and has methods that are not well
> supported. I suggest to do the following cleanups:
> - Pull the safety net into a separate class
> - Use the {{WriteMode}} to indicate overwriting behavior. Right now, the
> {{FileSystem}} class defines that enum and never uses it. It feels weird.
> - Remove the {{create(path, overwrite, blocksize, reolication, ...)}}
> method, which is not really supported across file system implementations. For
> HDFS, behavior should be set via the configuration anyways.
> All changes have to be made in a non-API-breaking fashion.
