Josh Elser created HBASE-21062: ---------------------------------- Summary: WALFactory has misleading notion of "default" Key: HBASE-21062 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-21062 Project: HBase Issue Type: Bug Components: wal Reporter: Josh Elser Assignee: Josh Elser Fix For: 3.0.0, 2.0.2, 2.2.0, 2.1.1
In WALFactory, there is an enum {{Providers}} which has a list of supported WALProvider implementations. In addition to list this, there is also a {{defaultProvider}} (which the Configuration defaults to), that is meant to be our "advertised" default WALProvider. However, the implementation of {{getProviderClass}} in WALFactory doesn't actually adhere to the value of this enum, instead *always* returning AsyncFSWal if it can be loaded. Having the default value in the enum but then overriding it in the implementation of {{getProviderClass}} is silly and misleading. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
