Vinod K V updated HADOOP-6715:
------------------------------
Component/s: security
util
I propose we separate the display functionality from {{toString()}} as the
latter can potentially be used for other purposes as Ravi mentioned above. So
we will
- fix {{toString()}} addressing the bug related to the wild-card '*'
- add a new API say {{AccessControlList.getDisplayString()}}. This should
return "ALL USERS" for '*' and "NONE" for ' ' (empty space character) and the
output of {{toString}} for every other value of ACL.
Thoughts?
> AccessControlList.toString() returns empty string when we set acl to "*"

> AccessControlList.toString() returns empty string when we set the acl to "\*"
> and also when we set it to empty(i.e. " "). This is causing wrong values for
> ACLs shown on jobdetails.jsp and jobdetailshistory.jsp web pages when acls
> are set to "\*".
> I think AccessControlList.toString() needs to be changed to return "\*" when
> we set the acl to "\*".
