Todd Lipcon updated HADOOP-7287: -------------------------------- Attachment: hadoop-7287-testcase.txt Here's a test case which illustrates why this problem happens. You can easily reproduce from the command line by trying something like: ./bin/hadoop fs -Ddfs.block.size=4096 -touchz f1 ./bin/hadoop fs -stat "%o" f1 and you'll see that the deprecated option was ignored and there was no warning. > Configuration deprecation mechanism doesn't work properly for > GenericOptionsParser/Tools > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-7287 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7287 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: conf > Affects Versions: 0.22.0 > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.22.0 > > Attachments: hadoop-7287-testcase.txt > > > For example, you can't use -D options on the "hadoop fs" command line in > order to specify the deprecated names of configuration options. The issue is > that the ordering is: > - JVM starts > - GenericOptionsParser creates a Configuration object and calls set() for > each of the options specified on command line > - DistributedFileSystem or other class eventually instantiates > HdfsConfiguration which adds the deprecations > - Some class calls conf.get("new key") and sees the default instead of the > version set on the command line -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
