Yesterday I uploaded a patch and the Hadoop QA responded some 30 minutes later with:
+1 javadoc. The javadoc tool did not generate any warning messages. ... Test results: https://hudson.apache.org/hudson/job/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build/219//testReport/ Findbugs warnings: https://hudson.apache.org/hudson/job/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build/219//artifact/trunk/build/test/findbugs/newPatchFindbugsWarnings.html Console output: https://hudson.apache.org/hudson/job/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build/219//console Just out of curiosity I had a look at the console output and there I found: [exec] [javadoc] /grid/0/hudson/hudson-slave/workspace/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build/trunk/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/io/compress/SplittableGzipCodec.java:207: warning - Tag @link:illegal character: "58" in "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3960651" [exec] [javadoc] /grid/0/hudson/hudson-slave/workspace/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build/trunk/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/io/compress/SplittableGzipCodec.java:207: warning - Tag @link:illegal character: "47" in "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3960651" [exec] [javadoc] /grid/0/hudson/hudson-slave/workspace/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build/trunk/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/io/compress/SplittableGzipCodec.java:207: warning - Tag @link:illegal character: "47" in "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3960651" [exec] [javadoc] /grid/0/hudson/hudson-slave/workspace/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build/trunk/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/io/compress/SplittableGzipCodec.java:207: warning - Tag @link:illegal character: "47" in "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3960651" [exec] [javadoc] /grid/0/hudson/hudson-slave/workspace/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build/trunk/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/io/compress/SplittableGzipCodec.java:207: warning - Tag @link:illegal character: "47" in "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3960651" [exec] [javadoc] /grid/0/hudson/hudson-slave/workspace/PreCommit-HADOOP-Build/trunk/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/io/compress/SplittableGzipCodec.java:207: warning - Tag @link: reference not found: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3960651 Now these warnings are clearly caused by an error I made (I've just fixed it). Does this classify as a bug in the Hadoop QA? If so, where do I report it? -- Best regards, Niels Basjes
