Jonathan Barber updated HADOOP-9491:
------------------------------------

    Attachment: HADOOP-9491.patch

Rename member ._dict to ._hod_dict to remove conflict with identically named ConfigParser member.

> Running HOD from the hadoop-1.1.2-bin.tar.gz distribution with python 2.6.6 on RHEL6.4 fails with the output:
> $ ./contrib/hod/bin/hod -c contrib/hod/conf/hodrc list -d /tmp/hod-jbarber 
> /homes/jbarber/hadoop-1.1.2/contrib/hod/hodlib/Common/threads.py:19: DeprecationWarning: The popen2 module is deprecated.  Use the subprocess module.
>   from popen2 import Popen4, Popen3, MAXFD
> Traceback (most recent call last):
>   File "hod", line 411, in <module>
>     options=hodOptions) 
>   File "/homes/jbarber/hadoop-1.1.2/contrib/hod/hodlib/Common/setup.py", line 449, in __init__
>     self.read(configFile)
>   File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/ConfigParser.py", line 286, in read
>     self._read(fp, filename)
>   File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/ConfigParser.py", line 475, in _read
>     cursect = self._dict()
> TypeError: 'dict' object is not callable
> This error appears because the Hadoop "config" class is an instance of the  python ConfigParser class with a class variable called ._dict. However, the internals of the ConfigParser class appears to have been changed with later versions of python to have a method called ._dict() which now conflicts with the "config" classes usage.
> This can be fixed by changing all references in contrib/hod/hodlib/Common/setup.py from ._dict to ._hod_dict, e.g.:
> sed -i 's/\._dict/._hod_dict/' contrib/hod/hodlib/Common/setup.py
> I tested this change by repeating the hod "list" command successfully.
