jay vyas commented on HDFS-6843: -------------------------------- Hi andrew and charles: - For this JIRA, we all (1) certainly agree that an update to the unit tests should be a part of this patch. And (2) A great place for such a test would be {{hadoop-common/src/test/java/org/apache/hadoop/fs/contract}} . So, for now, can we agree to that? - Meanwhile, I can start the mailing list thread about this subject. Thanks alot [~andrew.wang] for being clear and transparent about your position. Looking forward to hearing from the overall community on this (imo) **very important** topic. > Create FSDataInputStream & FSDataOutputStream isEncrypted() method > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-6843 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6843 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: namenode, security > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: Charles Lamb > Assignee: Charles Lamb > Attachments: HDFS-6843.001.patch, HDFS-6843.002.patch, > HDFS-6843.003.patch > > > FileStatus should have a 'boolean isEncrypted()' method.
