impressive! I need to learn more about scala. What I mean stripping away conditional check in Java is this. static final boolean isLogInfoEnabled = false; public void logMessage(String message) { if(isLogInfoEnabled) { log.info(message) } } If you look at the byte code the dead

Re: Question on Spark code

I think it's more precise to say args like any expression are evaluated when their value is required. It's just that this special syntax causes extra code to be generated that makes it effectively a function passed, not value, and one that's lazily evaluated. Look at the bytecode if you're

Re: Question on Spark code

@Sean Got it! I come from Java world so I guess I was wrong in assuming that arguments are evaluated during the method invocation time. How about the conditional checks to see if the log is InfoEnabled or DebugEnabled? For Example, if (log.isInfoEnabled) log.info(msg) I hear we should use guard

Re: Question on Spark code

Maybe you are looking for declarations like this. "=> String" means the arg isn't evaluated until it's used, which is just what you want with log statements. The message isn't constructed unless it will be logged. protected def logInfo(msg: => String) { On Sun, Jun 25, 2017 at 10:28 AM kant

I am not getting the question. The logging trait does exactly what is says on the box, I don't see what string concatenation has to do with it. On Sun, Jun 25, 2017 at 11:27 AM, kant kodali wrote: > Hi All, > > I came across this file

Question on Spark code

Hi All, I came across this file https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/internal/Logging.scala and I am wondering what is the purpose of this? Especially it doesn't prevent any string concatenation and also the if checks are already done by the library
