[jira] Updated: (HADOOP-4475) The (deprecated) method NetUtils.getServerAddress() doesn't validate configuration values enough

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4475?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Chris Douglas updated HADOOP-4475:
----------------------------------

    Status: Open  (was: Patch Available)

Browsing through HADOOP-2404 where this was introduced, this looks like it's adding tests for a compatibility bridge we crossed long ago... I favor removing this method per HADOOP-2827, unless there are some concrete use cases...

> Although HADOPP-2827 wants to kill this method, it is handy, but it doesn't have enough address validation, and can return a null value, which triggers NPEs a bit later on in the code
