Adrian Woodhead commented on HADOOP-2086: ----------------------------------------- OK, I agree with all your comments. One final question and I'll submit another patch - is the READY state also acceptable for adding a depending job? Or is only WAITING valid? > ability to add dependencies to a job after construction > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2086 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2086 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Affects Versions: 0.14.2 > Environment: n/a > Reporter: Adrian Woodhead > Fix For: 0.16.0 > > Attachments: job-add-dependencies.patch > > > The current Job API only allows for dependent jobs to be passed in at object > construction time. It would be nice if there was an additional constructor > which did not take any depending jobs and then an "addDependingJob" method > which could be used to add depending jobs to a job at a later point. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
