[jira] [Updated] (MAPREDUCE-2584) Check for serializers early, and give out more information regarding missing serializers

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2584?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Harsh J updated MAPREDUCE-2584:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: MAPREDUCE-2584.r7.diff

Rebased yet again. Part of this patch's changes on the common side were already committed, so am inclined to commit this in as well.

But I'd like to know if there are any concerns with this new front-end check. Anyone? Is throwing an exception bad if there's a ClassNotFound? Should we just WARN?

> As discussed on HADOOP-7328, MapReduce can handle serializers in a much better way in case of bad configuration, improper imports (Some odd Text class instead of the Writable Text set as key), etc..
> This issue covers the MapReduce parts of the improvements (made to IFile, MapOutputBuffer, etc. and possible early-check of serializer availability pre-submit) that provide more information than just an NPE as is the current case.
