Daryn Sharp commented on MAPREDUCE-4321:
----------------------------------------
It was a suggestion, so I'm perfectly fine with another jira if you think it
would be useful. {{Path}} allows hadoop methods to work seamlessly with either
local or remote paths. Adding {{File}} counterparts would be cumbersome, yet
converting windows files to paths isn't as straight forward. Someone will
unknowingly do it wrong in the future and someone else will have to chase it
down. A ctor that takes a file reduces but doesn't eliminate the chance
someone will do it wrong.

> DefaultTaskController#launchTask tries to run the child JVM task with the
> following command line:
> {code}cmd.exe /c /c:/some/path.../taskjvm.cmd{code}
> And this fails because the given path is prefixed with a forward slash. This
> also causes a number of tests to fail:
> org.apache.hadoop.conf.TestNoDefaultsJobConf
> org.apache.hadoop.fs.TestCopyFiles
> org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TestBadRecords
> org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TestClusterMRNotification
> org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TestCompressedEmptyMapOutputs
> org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TestControlledMapReduceJob
