Michele Catasta commented on HADOOP-6578: ----------------------------------------- Javadoc warnings are coming from the hadoop.security package. ORing with the previous Hudson run in March, it should be a +1 overall. > Configuration should trim whitespace around a lot of value types > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-6578 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6578 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: conf > Affects Versions: 0.22.0 > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Michele Catasta > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HADOOP-6578.patch > > > I've seen multiple users make an error where they've listed some whitespace > around a class name (eg for configuring a scheduler). This results in a > ClassNotFoundException which is very hard to debug, as you don't notice the > whitespace in the exception! We should simply trim the whitespace in > Configuration.getClass and Configuration.getClasses to avoid this class of > user error. > Similarly, we should trim in getInt, getLong, etc - anywhere that whitespace > doesn't have semantic meaning we should be a little less strict on input. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
