------------------------------------

{noformat}
+        Option timeout = new Option(TIMEOUT_OPTION, true, "timeout in seconds 
(default is -1 (no timeout))");
+        Option interval = new Option(INTERVAL_OPTION, true, "polling interval 
in seconds (default is 60)");
{noformat}
we should give sane default for timeout, just in case the user forgets to stop 
if the job is stuck(this will unnecessarily put more load on oozie). Probably 
10 mins/1 hour. Depends on the kind of jobs that users typically launch. We use 
coord always. So, I don't know the typical workflow usecases
interval depends on workflow usecases again. Pick something thats useful for 
most

{noformat}
+    public void pollJob(String id, int timeout, int interval, boolean quiet) 
throws OozieClientException {
{noformat}
Its better to expose time in milli secs as long

{noformat}
+                    System.out.println(jobInfo.getStatus());
{noformat}
This doesn't print '.'. Is it intentional?

> Currently, in situations where a program has to wait to check wether an oozie 
> workflow is successful or not, it is done by constantly pinging the oozie 
> workflow status (that is, manual scripts need to be written). It would be 
> good if Oozie provided a {{oozie wait -jobID <JOBID>}} or similar.
