Use Java's ServiceLoader to add default resources to Configuration ------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-7077 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7077 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Improvement Components: conf Reporter: Tom White Currently each class with a main() method (in HDFS and MapReduce) calls Configuration.addDefaultResource() to add the names of resource files to load (e.g. see DataNode and NameNode which both add hdfs-default.xml and hdfs-site.xml). We could reduce the code duplication by allowing the use of [java.util.ServiceLoader|http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/ServiceLoader.html] to do the initialization. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
