Arun C Murthy commented on MAPREDUCE-777: ----------------------------------------- In general, we should look at this as an opportunity to clean up the job-submission interface (currently JobClient) and the goal is not to be compatible on a feature-by-feature basis. I'll try and take a closer look at the interfaces added to org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Job soon, but I thought I should spell out the underlying vision. > 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 > Assignee: Amareshwari Sriramadasu > Fix For: 0.21.0 > > Attachments: m-777.patch, patch-777-1.txt, patch-777-2.txt, > patch-777-3.txt, patch-777.txt > > > We need to create a replacement interface for the JobClient API in the new > interface.
