Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-3830: -------------------------------------------- I tested the patch by running test_libhdfs_threaded. Before doing so, I added the jars from share/hadoop/hdfs and share/hadoop/common to my CLASSPATH. (I am working with the tarball layout here.) Without this patch, the test fails intermittently. The failure mode that I saw was an exception from one thread about the FileSystem being closed (because someone closed FileSystem shared by all threads, and it doesn't reference-count.) > test_libhdfs_threaded: use forceNewInstance > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-3830 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3830 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: libhdfs > Affects Versions: 2.2.0-alpha > Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe > Assignee: Colin Patrick McCabe > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HDFS-3830.001.patch > > > test_libhdfs_threaded should create new FileSystem instances with > newInstance, to make sure that the test doesn't break because of interference > between the different threads. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
