Jorn,

what aspects are you speaking about ?

My response was absolutely pertinent to Jinan because he will not even face the 
problem if he used Scala. So it was along the lines of helping a person to 
learn fishing that giving him a fish.

Sorry: it will. This is a compatibility issue with Hadoop s3a as implemented in 
hadoop-aws.jar and amazon s3 libraries, something you can replicate in 
ScalaContext.textFile()

This is a classpath problem, not a language issue


And by the way your blinkered and biased response missed the fact that SPARK 
WAS WRITTEN AND IS WRITTEN IN SCALA.

And runs in the JVM, including much of the core ASF libraries, google guava, 
Hadoop core, Zookeeper, etc. Oh, and hadoop has some C native libraries which 
you should have for Unix performance, and will need for Windows.  There are 
bits of bash and python around, and even groovy in some of the spark-assembly 
JARs, though that's an accident which has been corrected in recent versions.

Languages are tools: the more you know, the more tools you have at your 
disposal.

Now, if you really want to make the problem go away, a patch for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13062 would be nice; I promise I 
will review it
