Michael Bieniosek updated HADOOP-1524:
--------------------------------------

    Attachment: eliminate-split-idx.patch

This patch eliminates the use of split.idx.  Instead, get the information directly from the file system.

> When I start a task and go to the task logs, nothing shows up for a while.  An examination of TaskLog.Writer and TaskLog.Reader reveals:
> 1. The TaskLog.Reader relies on the presence of a split.idx to identify the parts of the logs to display.
> 2. The TaskLog.Writer only updates the split.idx file when it moves on to the next log.
> As a result, updates to the log only get pushed when an entire file is done.
> Why is there a split.idx file?  It seems that since files are called part-00000, part-00001, etc., the TaskLog.Reader can just look at all files and arrange them by alphabetical order.  The split.idx file also contains file length, but this data is already stored by the filesystem.
> If nobody has objections, I'd like to write a patch to eliminate the split.idx file.
