Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-8422:
-------------------------------------
bq. Got a nit though: The calls "get*Default*Replication", etc. have 'default'
in them and sorta make no sense given a path object, given also that they're
non-static methods within a FileSystem API? Shouldn't they be simply
getReplication, etc.? If you agree, I'll file another JIRA.
I kind of see what you are saying, but it actually does make sense given a
{{Path}} object. The question it's answering is: "what are the default values
for the actual filesystem that will contain this given path?".
I confused by the concern with the methods being non-static. A fs, such as
{{ViewFileSystem}} must be able to override the method to resolve the path
through the mount table to get the real fs. Maybe we are talking past each
other, so what methods & signatures are you envisioning?
