John Vines created ACCUMULO-1694:
------------------------------------
Summary: ZooKeeperInstance constructor should avoid throwing
RuntimeExceptions
Key: ACCUMULO-1694
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1694
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Bug
Components: client
Reporter: John Vines
Fix For: 1.6.0
Currently all ZooKeeper related exceptions that occur in ZooKeeperInstance's
constructor get propagated out as RuntimeExceptions. We should change this
behavior to allow for better client handling of configuration issues.
I think the best options are to either have the constructor throw an exception
for this (which I'm a bit meh on) or having methods which actually need to talk
to ZooKeeper propagate a non-runtime exception. We can easily wrap this under
AccumuloException for getConnector, I think, but getMasterLocations() and
getRootTabletLocation() would also have to propagate an error which would mean
an interface change.
