Ahmed Radwan created HADOOP-8484: ------------------------------------ Summary: Prevent Configuration getter methods that are passed a default value from throwing RuntimeException Key: HADOOP-8484 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8484 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: conf Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha Reporter: Ahmed Radwan Fix For: 2.0.1-alpha
Configuration getter methods that are passed default values can throw RuntimeExceptions if the value provided is invalid (e.g. NumberFormatException). In many cases such exception results in more serious consequences (failure to sart a service, see for example NodeManager DeletionService). This can be avoided by returning the default value and just printing a warning message. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
