Binglin Chang created HADOOP-8985: ------------------------------------- Summary: Add namespace declarations in .proto files for other languages Key: HADOOP-8985 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8985 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Binglin Chang Priority: Minor
Currently .proto files use java_package to specify java packages in proto files, but namespace are not specified for other languages such as C++, this causes name collision in C++. we can add namespace declarations to avoid this. In Java, the package specifier is used as the Java package, unless you explicitly provide a option java_package in your .proto file. So the original java package will not be affected. About namespace name, how about "hadoop.common"(hadoop::common in C++) for all common sub-project proto files, and "hadoop.hdfs"(hadoop::hdfs in C++) for all hdfs sub-project proto files? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
