[jira] [Commented] (FALCON-1308) Allow namespace-ing of custom properties in the entity specification

["Pallavi Rao (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FALCON-1308?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14616389#comment-14616389 ] 

Pallavi Rao commented on FALCON-1308:
-------------------------------------

The error that gets thrown:
{code}
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: opt contains illegal character value '.'
	at org.apache.commons.cli.OptionValidator.validateOption(OptionValidator.java:73)
	at org.apache.commons.cli.Option.<init>(Option.java:123)
	at org.apache.commons.cli.Option.<init>(Option.java:105)
{code}

Option uses an OptionValidator that rejects an option name if it has '.' in it.

> There are some Falcon system properties that are supplied as custom properties in the Entity definition. Ideally, we should prefix these with "falcon.system" to distinguish them from user-supplied properties.
> Currently, we cannot have property names that have '.' in them as the Commons CLI (OptionValidator) rejects such names.
