Ravi Prakash commented on HADOOP-10660: --------------------------------------- Ted: I'm afraid I don't see where close() is being called either. AbstractGangliaSink->GangliaSink30->GangliaSink31 don't implement it either. I don't see a problem if it were added so if you can please point out where its being used, I have no objection. If its an external project, should we consider making MetricsSink implement Closeable (in a separate JIRA ofcourse)? Chen: Thanks for the patch. However if we were to close the writer, I would expect to check during a putMetrics whether it was null, and perhaps log a message? Also a log message at close could be helpful in later debugging issues. > GraphiteSink should implement Closeable > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-10660 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10660 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Ted Yu > Assignee: Chen He > Attachments: HADOOP-10660.patch > > > GraphiteSink wraps OutputStreamWriter around socket's output stream. > Currently the socket is never closed. > GraphiteSink should implement Closeable such that MetricsSystem can close the > socket when it is stopped. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
