Github user CodingCat commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/11#issuecomment-36414832 @pwendell , I just updated the code In the latest update, I make the checking only applicable to FileOutputFormat, the difference with your suggestion is that I added checking for that if the user has set mapred.output.dir, because the internal implementation of getOutputPath is actually based on this property.... {code} /** * Get the {@link Path} to the output directory for the map-reduce job. * * @return the {@link Path} to the output directory for the map-reduce job. * @see FileOutputFormat#getWorkOutputPath(JobConf) */ public static Path getOutputPath(JobConf conf) { String name = conf.get("mapred.output.dir"); return name == null ? null: new Path(name); } {code}
