-----------------------------------
Reporter: Patrick Wendell (was: Patrick Cogan)
> Clean up and document use of SparkEnv
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-1155
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1155
> Project: Apache Spark
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Spark Core
> Reporter: Patrick Wendell
> Assignee: Andrew Or
> Fix For: 1.0.0
>
>
> We should provide better documentation explaining what SparkEnv is and why it
> needs to be thread local (basically, to allow it to be accessed inside of
> closures on executors). Also, in cases where SparkEnv is being accessed on
> the driver we should access it through the associated SparkContext rather
> than through the thread local. Finally, we should see if it's possible to
> just remove this as a thread local and instead make it a static singleton
> that the exeucutor sets once. This last thing might not be possible if, under
> certain code paths, this is used on the driver.
