Philip Zeyliger updated MAPREDUCE-990: -------------------------------------- Status: Patch Available (was: Open) > Making distributed cache getters in JobContext never return null > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-990 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-990 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Philip Zeyliger > Assignee: Philip Zeyliger > Priority: Minor > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-990.patch.txt > > > MAPREDUCE-898 moved distributed cache setters and getters into Job and > JobContext. Since the API is new, I'd like to propose that those getters > never return null, but instead always return an array, even if it's empty. > If people don't like this change, I can instead merely update the javadoc to > reflect the fact that null may be returned. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
