The first time they appear, exceptions are printed in full, including
a stack trace. After that, they are printed in abbreviated form. They
are periodically reprinted in full; the reprint interval defaults to 5
seconds and is configurable using the property
spark.logging.exceptionPrintInterval.
When a task throws an exception, the Spark executor previously just
logged it to a local file on the slave and exited. This commit causes
Spark to also report the exception back to the driver using a Mesos
status update, so the user doesn't have to look through a log file on
the slave.
Here's what the reporting currently looks like:
# ./run spark.examples.ExceptionHandlingTest master@203.0.113.1:5050
[...]
11/10/26 21:04:13 INFO spark.SimpleJob: Lost TID 1 (task 0:1)

Before, the cleaner attempted to clone $outer objects that were classes
(as opposed to nested closures) and preserve only their used fields,
which was bad because it would miss fields that are accessed indirectly
by methods, and in general it would confuse user code. Now we keep a
reference to those objects without cloning them. This is not perfect
because the user still needs to be careful of what they'll carry along
into closures, but it works better in some cases that seemed confusing
before. We need to improve the documentation on what variables get
passed along with a closure and possibly add some debugging tools for it
as well.
Fixes#71 -- that code now works in the REPL.
This commit fixes a bug in groupWith that was causing it to destroy
partitioning information. It replaces a call to map with a call to
mapValues, which preserves partitioning.
Note that we use scala.Serializable introduced in Scala 2.9 instead of
java.io.Serializable. Also, case classes inherit from scala.Serializable by
default.
- Replaced modified Kryo version with the standard one augmented with
the kryo-serializers package, which includes support for classes with
no-arg constructors (that was why we had a modified Kryo before)
- The kryo-serializers version also fixes issue #72.
- Added a bunch of tests.
- Serialize maps and a few other common types properly by default.
