Alejandro Abdelnur commented on YARN-129: ----------------------------------------- +1 > Simplify classpath construction for mini YARN tests > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-129 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-129 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: client > Reporter: Tom White > Assignee: Tom White > Attachments: YARN-129.patch, YARN-129.patch, YARN-129.patch > > > The test classpath includes a special file called 'mrapp-generated-classpath' > (or similar in distributed shell) that is constructed at build time, and > whose contents are a classpath with all the dependencies needed to run the > tests. When the classpath for a container (e.g. the AM) is constructed the > contents of mrapp-generated-classpath is read and added to the classpath, and > the file itself is then added to the classpath so that later when the AM > constructs a classpath for a task container it can propagate the test > classpath correctly. > This mechanism can be drastically simplified by propagating the system > classpath of the current JVM (read from the java.class.path property) to a > launched JVM, but only if running in the context of the mini YARN cluster. > Any tests that use the mini YARN cluster will automatically work with this > change. Although any that explicitly deal with mrapp-generated-classpath can > be simplified. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
