Review request for hadoop-common and Todd Lipcon. Summary ------- Since getSerialization() can possibly return a null, it is only right that getSerializer() and getDeserializer() usage functions do the same, instead of throwing up NPEs. Related issue to which this improvement is required: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2584 This addresses bug HADOOP-7328. http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7328 Diffs ----- src/java/org/apache/hadoop/io/serializer/SerializationFactory.java dee314a Diff: https://reviews.apache.org/r/884/diff Testing ------- Existing SequenceFile serialization factory tests pass. The change is merely to make the functions return null instead of throwing an NPE within. Thanks, Harsh
