Daniel Barclay created HADOOP-13679: ---------------------------------------
Summary: org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path doesn't specify mentioned differences from URIs Key: HADOOP-13679 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13679 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: documentation Reporter: Daniel Barclay The documentation comment on {{org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path.Path(String)}} says: bq. Path strings are URIs, but with unescaped elements and some additional normalization. However, neither that comment nor {{org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path}}'s documentation comment says anything further about exactly what the differences between URI and {{org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path}} strings are. (Knowing what {{Path}} strings are supposed to be is important for determining whether the code is buggy or not. In particular, {{Path(String)}} and friends seem to parse the scheme portion incorrectly (taking anything before a (first) colon rather than following the RFC 3986 syntax of: bq. {{scheme = ALPHA *( ALPHA / DIGIT / "+" / "-" / "." )}} ).) So what exactly are the actual differences between {{Path}} string syntax and URI syntax? (I might be able to submit a PR with documentation changes, but I need the raw information first.) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
