Ahmed Radwan commented on MAPREDUCE-4422: ----------------------------------------- > the newly added variable DEFAULT_YARN_APPLICATION_CLASSPATH isn't being used > anywhere? The point of adding this was to use it, at least, in > MRApps.setMRFrameworkClasspath? MRApps.setMRFrameworkClasspath reads the value from the conf files through conf.get(YarnConfiguration.YARN_APPLICATION_CLASSPATH), and if not set, the default value will be picked from yarn-default.xml. Making it reads the DEFAULT_YARN_APPLICATION_CLASSPATH will defeat the purpose of having it configurable. Or do you just mean modifying the call to be conf.get(YarnConfiguration.YARN_APPLICATION_CLASSPATH, DEFAULT_YARN_APPLICATION_CLASSPATH), which will not make a difference in this case as the default is already picked if the property is not set. > we should use Configuration.getStrings rather than do a 'manual' String.split > to parse this out. Configuration.getString uses StringTokenizer to achieve exactly what String.split will do here. I am not sure if one is more efficient than the other, but I can change the it if you know it is better. I'll upload a new patch with the updates. > YARN_APPLICATION_CLASSPATH needs a documented default value in > YarnConfiguration > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4422 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4422 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: nodemanager > Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > Assignee: Ahmed Radwan > Fix For: 2.0.1-alpha > > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-4422.patch, MAPREDUCE-4422_rev2.patch > > > MAPREDUCE-3505 allowed YARN_APPLICATION_CLASSPATH to be configurable. > However, we didn't add a default value to YarnConfiguration, as-is the norm. > Ran into it while investigating MAPREDUCE-4421. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
