Nigel Daley updated HDFS-1331: ------------------------------ Fix Version/s: (was: 0.22.0) Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug) Changing to improvement and removing 0.22 fix version. > dfs -test should work like /bin/test > ------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-1331 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1331 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: tools > Affects Versions: 0.20.2 > Reporter: Allen Wittenauer > Priority: Minor > > hadoop dfs -test doesn't act like its shell equivalent, making it difficult > to actually use if you are used to the real test command: > hadoop: > $hadoop dfs -test -d /nonexist; echo $? > test: File does not exist: /nonexist > 255 > shell: > $ test -d /nonexist; echo $? > 1 > a) Why is it spitting out a message? Even so, why is it saying file instead > of directory when I used -d? > b) Why is the return code 255? I realize this is documented as '0' if true. > But docs basically say the value is undefined if it isn't. > c) where is -f? > d) Why is empty -z instead of -s ? Was it a misunderstanding of the man page? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
