Sean Owen commented on SPARK-4320:
----------------------------------
So these methods all already take a {{Configuration}} or {{JobConf}}, not
{{Job}}. The Java API mirrors the Scala API. It sounds like you're asking for a
method that takes {{Configuration}} in the first instance. It 'exists' in that
you can set these values on the {{Configuration}} object and I assume the idea
was to only bother with 1 overload for this completely generic case. Internally
it makes a {{Job}}. What does being able to pass a {{Job}} get you that
{{Configuration}} doesn't? (There may be, I forget.)
> JavaPairRDD should supply a saveAsNewHadoopDataset which takes a Job object

> I am outputting data to Accumulo using a custom OutputFormat. I have tried
> using saveAsNewHadoopFile() and that works- though passing an empty path is a
> bit weird. Being that it isn't really a file I'm storing, but rather a
> generic Pair dataset, I'd be inclined to use the saveAsHadoopDataset()
> method, though I'm not at all interested in using the legacy mapred API.
> Perhaps we could supply a saveAsNewHadoopDateset method. Personally, I think
> there should be two ways of calling into this method. Instead of forcing the
> user to always set up the Job object explicitly, I'm in the camp of having
> the following method signature:
> saveAsNewHadoopDataset(keyClass : Class[K], valueClass : Class[V], ofclass :
> Class[? extends OutputFormat], conf : Configuration). This way, if I'm
> writing spark jobs that are going from Hadoop back into Hadoop, I can
> construct my Configuration once.
> Perhaps an overloaded method signature could be:
> saveAsNewHadoopDataset(job : Job)
