Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on MAPREDUCE-5281: ---------------------------------------------------- Clearly we don't want to mess with the class-signature. This is one of the main reasons why MAPREDUCE-5108 targeted only source-compatibility for mapreduce APIs. I think we can do the remaining - adding back equals etc. But no to the signature change. > Mapreduce API: Counter changes from non-abstract class to interface > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-5281 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5281 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Zhijie Shen > Assignee: Zhijie Shen > > Therefore, significant changes in Counter: > 1. Two Constructors are removed; > 2. Following methods are removed: > * boolean equals(Object) > * int hashCode() > * void readFields(DataInput) > * void write(DataOutput) > Fix of this issue may break 0.23. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
