[jira] [Resolved] (HBASE-4372) IS_SECURE_HADOOP should be set to
true only if security is turned on.

Gary Helmling resolved HBASE-4372.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Invalid
I think you misunderstand the purpose of User.IS_SECURE_HADOOP. It is there to differentiate between API incompatible versions of UserGroupInformation from vanilla 0.20 to secure 0.20+ using reflection.
Whether or not kerberos authentication is enabled makes no difference in determining whether we need to call UserGroupInformation.getCurrentUGI() vs. UserGroupInformation.getCurrentUser(), for example.
If you simply want access to whether or not secure authentication is enabled, there is a patch against HBASE-4180 that adds a User.isSecurityEnabled() method.
