John Zhuge created HADOOP-13079: ----------------------------------- Summary: Add -q to fs -ls to print non-printable characters Key: HADOOP-13079 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13079 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Reporter: John Zhuge Assignee: John Zhuge
Add option {{-q}} to "hdfs dfs -ls" to print non-printable characters as "?". Non-printable characters are defined by [isprint(3)|http://linux.die.net/man/3/isprint] according to the current locale. Default to {{-q}} behavior on terminal; otherwise, print raw characters. See the difference in these 2 command lines: * {{hadoop fs -ls /dir}} * {{hadoop fs -ls /dir | od -c}} In C, {{isatty(STDOUT_FILENO)}} is used to find out whether the output is a terminal. Since Java doesn't have {{isatty}}, I will use JNI to call C {{isatty()}} because the closest test {{System.console() == null}} does not work in some cases. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-dev-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-dev-h...@hadoop.apache.org
