Summary: Unnecessary conversions in History Events (was: Unnessisary
conversions in History Events)
> Unnecessary conversions in History Events
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: MAPREDUCE-4822
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4822
> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: jobhistoryserver
> Affects Versions: 0.23.4
> Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans
> Priority: Trivial
>
> There are a number of conversions in the Job History Event classes that are
> totally unnecessary. It appears that they were originally used to convert
> from the internal avro format, but now many of them do not pull the values
> from the avro they store them internally.
> For example:
> {code:title=TaskAttemptFinishedEvent.java}
> /** Get the task type */
> public TaskType getTaskType() {
> return TaskType.valueOf(taskType.toString());
> }
> {code}
> The code currently is taking an enum, converting it to a string and then
> asking the same enum to convert it back to an enum. If java work properly
> this should be a noop and a reference to the original taskType should be
> returned.
> There are several places that a string is having toString called on it, and
> since strings are immutable it returns a reference to itself.
> The various ids are not immutable and probably should not be changed at this
> point.
