Mingliang Liu created HDFS-9111: ----------------------------------- Summary: Move hdfs-client side helper methods converting protobuf from PBHelper to PBHelperClient Key: HDFS-9111 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9111 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Sub-task Reporter: Mingliang Liu Assignee: Mingliang Liu
*TL;DR* This jira tracks the effort of moving PB helper methods, which convert client side data structure to and from protobuf, to the {{hadoop-hdfs-client}} module. Currently the {{PBHelper}} class contains helper methods converting both client and server side data structures from/to protobuf. As we move client (and common) classes to {{hadoop-hdfs-client}} module (see [HDFS-8053] and [HDFS-9039]), we also need to move client module related PB converters to client module. A good place may be a new class named {{PBHelperClient}}. After this, the existing {{PBHelper}} class stays in {{hadoop-hdfs}} module with converters for converting server side data structures. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
