Chris Douglas commented on MAPREDUCE-679: ----------------------------------------- bq. I'm not sure if Aaron could use Xmlenc here, as it is biased towards writing whole XML docs (with the XML header) rather than fragments. I don't see what you mean. [XMLOutputter|http://xmlenc.sourceforge.net/javadoc/0.52/org/znerd/xmlenc/XMLOutputter.html] doesn't appear to require the declaration. bq. Given that XMLenc is no longer an active project, there is value in having our own classes to chuck out well-formed XML and XHTML It's a fast, simple XML writer; I'm pleased that it's not getting new features. That said, escaping user strings displayed in the web UI is an excellent idea. > XML-based metrics as JSP servlet for JobTracker > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-679 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-679 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: jobtracker > Reporter: Aaron Kimball > Assignee: Aaron Kimball > Attachments: example-jobtracker-completed-job.xml, > example-jobtracker-running-job.xml, MAPREDUCE-679.2.patch, > MAPREDUCE-679.3.patch, MAPREDUCE-679.4.patch, MAPREDUCE-679.5.patch, > MAPREDUCE-679.patch > > > In HADOOP-4559, a general REST API for reporting metrics was proposed but > work seems to have stalled.

This is a relatively lightweight addition to provide some > machine-understandable metrics reporting. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
