Adrian Woodhead commented on HADOOP-2268:
-----------------------------------------
Understood.
I personally don't like the idea of dropping the "get" from those method names,
it seems much clearer to have that in the name. "readyJobs" could also mean
"get the jobs ready" which is confusing.
Another option would be to leave those 3 methods returning ArrayList and I
modify the patch to just change the internal hashtables -> Maps and do the
deprecating for dependingJobs with the method renamed like discussed earlier.
The code will be better than it was but you will still have the implementation
"leak" on those 3 methods.
> JobControl classes should use interfaces rather than implemenations

> See HADOOP-2202 for background on this issue. Arun C. Murthy agrees that when
> possible it is preferable to program against the interface rather than a
> concrete implementation (more flexible, allows for changes of the
> implementation in future etc.) JobControl currently exposes running, waiting,
> ready, successful and dependent jobs as ArrayList rather than List. I propose
> to change this to List.
> I will code up a patch for this.
