hello, list,

              Recently I have upgraded our Hadoop cluster from 0.20.2 to
0.21.0, and I found there is something wrong introduced by the upgrade.

              In the setConf method of
org.apache.hadoop.util.ReflectionUtils, any instance of Configurable would
be configured twice, and this may cause trouble.
              For example, in 0.21.0, KeyFieldBasedPartitioner implements
the Configurable interface. When configured twice, it get two KeyDescription
and gives out wrong partition number.

I have created a ticket for this:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7425
Paste the source code in 0.21.0 (and 0.20.2 too) below:

public static void setConf(Object theObject, Configuration conf) {
    if (conf != null) {
       if (theObject instanceof Configurable) {
           ((Configurable) theObject).setConf(conf);
       }
      setJobConf(theObject, conf);
   }
}

--
        best wishes.

Anyone have the same partition problem using Streaming in 0.21.0?
