Chris Nauroth created HDFS-7988: ----------------------------------- Summary: Replace usage of ExactSizeInputStream with LimitInputStream. Key: HDFS-7988 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7988 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Chris Nauroth Priority: Minor
HDFS has a class named {{ExactSizeInputStream}} used in the protobuf translation layer. This class wraps another {{InputStream}}, but constraints the readable bytes to a specified length. The functionality is nearly identical to {{LimitInputStream}} in Hadoop Common, with some differences in semantics regarding premature EOF. This issue proposes to eliminate {{ExactSizeInputStream}} in favor of {{LimitInputStream}} to reduce the size of the codebase. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
