Travis Crawford created HCATALOG-531:
----------------------------------------
Summary: HCatContext should be an enum
Key: HCATALOG-531
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-531
Project: HCatalog
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Travis Crawford
Assignee: Travis Crawford
[HCatContext|https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/hcatalog/trunk/src/java/org/apache/hcatalog/common/HCatContext.java]
is a container for a configuration that is globally accessible both on the FE
& BE. Its purpose is to simplify enabling optional functionality.
When I originally added this class I didn't use an enum, not knowing its the
recommended way of doing singletons in java. Since we haven't make a release
with this class I think we should change it now to the "Right Way" before it
gets much use.
I also added annotations showing the intended audience, and added some pretty
good javadocs.
