--------------------------------------

             Summary: libhdfs++: signed to unsigned conversions are breaking 
things and compiler isn't issuing expected warnings
                 Key: HDFS-10554
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-10554
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: James Clampffer
            Assignee: James Clampffer


There's at least two places where we use -1 to indicate unset/default values 
that end up getting cast into unsigned integers.  The compiler should be smart 
enough to figure this out and issue a warning but it's not; we need to find out 
what's going on there.  We also need to fix the places where this sort of thing 
has found its way into the code:

In URI
{code}
      // -1 if the port is undefined.
      optional<uint16_t> get_port() const
      { return port; }
{code}

In Options (gets cast to uint64_t somewhere)
{code}
    /**
     * Maximum number of retries for RPC operations
     **/
    int max_rpc_retries;
    static const int kNoRetry = -1;
{code}
