--------------------------------------------

             Summary: Inconsistent exception specifications in FileUtils#chmod
                 Key: HADOOP-9646
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9646
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe
            Assignee: Colin Patrick McCabe
            Priority: Minor


There are two FileUtils#chmod methods:

{code}
public static int chmod(String filename, String perm
                          ) throws IOException, InterruptedException;
public static int chmod(String filename, String perm, boolean recursive)
                            throws IOException;
{code}

The first one just calls the second one with {{recursive = false}}, but despite 
that it is declared as throwing {{InterruptedException}}, something the second 
one doesn't call.

The new Java7 chmod API, which we will transition to once JDK6 support is 
dropped, does *not* throw {{InterruptedException}}

See 
[http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/nio/file/Files.html#setOwner(java.nio.file.Path,
 java.nio.file.attribute.UserPrincipal)]

So we should make these consistent by removing the {{InterruptedException}}
