[jira] Created: (HADOOP-5082) No way to retrieve JobID from Job

No way to retrieve JobID from Job
---------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-5082
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5082
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: mapred
            Reporter: Amar Kamat


JobContext is used for a read-only view of job's info. Hence all the readonly fields in JobContext are set in the constructor. Job extends JobContext. When a Job is created, jobid is not known and hence there is no way to set JobID once Job is created. JobID is obtained only when the JobClient queries the jobTracker for a job-id., which happens later i.e upon job submission.

bq. What are we trying to solve here? What feature do we need? Or what bug are we fixing?
{code}
Configuration conf = new Configuration();
// populate conf for some job
Job job = new Job(conf);
job.submit();
// what should be the expected value of job.getJobID() ?
// As of today we get null
{code}
