Suresh Srinivas commented on HADOOP-7182: ----------------------------------------- Since FileUtil is marked Public, should we leave the deprecated class as it is and may be remove it in the next release? > remove stub implementation of HardLink from FileUtil, after fixing any > remaining dependencies > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-7182 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7182 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: util > Affects Versions: 0.23.0 > Reporter: Matt Foley > Assignee: Matt Foley > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.23.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-7182-cleanup.patch > > > This is the third part of a refactoring of HardLink: > 1. HADOOP-7133 moved HardLink from an inner class of FileUtil to a > stand-alone class, but left a stub class in FileUtil to prevent breaking > clients in HDFS. > 2. HDFS-1445 changes the clients in HDFS to point at the new implementation. > 3. After HDFS-1445 is committed, this ticket is to clean up the code by > removing the backward-compatibility stub. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
