[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-3801) Change the job state observer classes to interfaces

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3801?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12615394#action_12615394 ] 

Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-3801:
--------------------------------------

Why can't different observer implementations share state?  This change might save a few lines of code, but at the price of breaking every implementation when an interface changes.  That doesn't seem like a great tradeoff.

> Schedulers will most often want to be the observers of the job state events in a single class. Therefore, I think they should  be interfaces which can have multiple inheritance.
