Haohui Mai created HDFS-5650: -------------------------------- Summary: Remove AclReadFlag and AclWriteFlag in FileSystem API Key: HDFS-5650 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5650 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Sub-task Reporter: Haohui Mai Assignee: Haohui Mai
AclReadFlag and AclWriteFlag intended to capture various options used in getfacl and setfacl. These options determine whether the tool should traverse the filesystem recursively, follow the symlink, etc., but they are not part of the core ACLs abstractions. The client program has more information and more flexibility to implement these options. This jira proposes to remove these flags to simplify the APIs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.4#6159)
