-----------------------------------
Summary: Expose UGI.setLoginUser for tests
Key: HADOOP-9352
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9352
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: security
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha, 0.23.0, 3.0.0
Reporter: Daryn Sharp
Assignee: Daryn Sharp
The {{UGI.setLoginUser}} method is not publicly exposed, which makes it
impossible to correctly test code executed outside of an explicit {{doAs}}.
{{getCurrentUser}}/{{getLoginUser}} will always vivify the login user from the
user running the test, and not an arbitrary user to be determined by the test.
The method is documented with why it's not ready for prime-time, but it's good
enough for tests.
