-------------------------------

             Summary: CLONE - Why open method in class DFSClient would compare 
old LocatedBlocks and new LocatedBlocks?
                 Key: HDFS-3448
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3448
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Li Junjun
            Assignee: Todd Lipcon


This is in the package of org.apache.hadoop.hdfs, DFSClient.openInfo():
if (locatedBlocks != null) {
        Iterator<LocatedBlock> oldIter = 
locatedBlocks.getLocatedBlocks().iterator();
        Iterator<LocatedBlock> newIter = newInfo.getLocatedBlocks().iterator();
        while (oldIter.hasNext() && newIter.hasNext()) {
          if (! oldIter.next().getBlock().equals(newIter.next().getBlock())) {
            throw new IOException("Blocklist for " + src + " has changed!");
          }
        }
      }
Why we need compare old LocatedBlocks and new LocatedBlocks, and in what case 
it happen?
Why not "this.locatedBlocks = newInfo" directly?
