Todd Lipcon commented on MAPREDUCE-777: --------------------------------------- We have the need for a program to run an arbitrary client-provided jar and then monitor the jobs submitted by it. The easiest way to go about this is to interpose code in front of JobClient to catch the submission and hand off the job ID to the thread/process that needs to follow along. Without factory-izing JobClient, doing this is relatively tricky. > A method for finding and tracking jobs from the new API > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-777 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-777 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: client > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > > We need to create a replacement interface for the JobClient API in the new > interface.
