[jira] [Commented] (ACCUMULO-2346) Make UtilWaitThread.sleep() reset interrupt status

["Bill Havanki (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Bill Havanki commented on ACCUMULO-2346:
----------------------------------------

I'd be happier if this method were abandoned and its users dealt with the {{InterruptedException}} properly, especially by gracefully ending threads. I recall discussion on this across the community in the past but haven't found a record of it yet.

> Look into making UtilWaitThread.sleep() reset the interrupt status by calling {{Thread.currentThread().interrupt()}}.  This seems like a good thing to do, it allows code that does not want to deal with the interrupt to pass it on.  The question is, does doing this cause new bugs?
