[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-812) Make DfsPath a public class

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-812?page=comments#action_12457440 ] 
            
Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-812:
-------------------------------------

Why can't you simply use fs.getLength(Path)?  The DistributedFileSystem implementation, when passed a DFSPath, returns the cached length.

> I would like to get the filesize of a particular HDFS file from an external program. This functionality is exported through the DfsPath class. I would like to make this class a public class.
