Hi all
I try get length of file hadoop(RawFilesysten or hdfs) .
In javadoc method org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileStatus.getLen() writtend that
this method "return the length of this file, in blocks"
But method return size in bytes.

Is this bug in documentation or implememtation?
I use hadoop-0.18.3.

    From my understanding, getLen() always returned the length of the file in
    bytes.

    thank,
