Now every spark contributor has to know about it but if that's preferred happy to modify. was (Author: robert3005): Right, but how do I pass it downstream? > TaskContext should be an InheritableThreadLocal > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-20952 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-20952 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Spark Core > Affects Versions: 2.1.1 > Reporter: Robert Kruszewski > Priority: Minor > > TaskContext is a ThreadLocal as a result when you fork a thread inside your > executor task you lose the handle on the original context set by the > executor. We should change it to InheritableThreadLocal so we can access it > inside thread pools on executors. > See ParquetFileFormat#readFootersInParallel for example of code that uses > thread pools inside the tasks. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
