+/**
+ * A default parser for MapReduce job configuration properties.
+ * MapReduce job configuration properties are represented as key-value pairs. 
+ * Each key represents a configuration knob which controls or affects the 
+ * behavior of a MapReduce job or a job's task. The value associated with the 
+ * configuration key represents its value. Some of the keys are deprecated. As a
+ * result of deprecation some keys change or are preferred over other keys, 
+ * across versions. {@link MapReduceJobPropertiesParser} is a utility class that
+ * parses MapReduce job configuration properties and converts the value into a 
+ * well defined {@link DataType}. Users can use the
+ * {@link MapReduceJobPropertiesParser#parseJobProperty()} API to process job 
+ * configuration parameters. This API will parse a job property represented as a
+ * key-value pair and return the value wrapped inside a {@link DataType}. 
+ * Callers can then use the returned {@link DataType} for further processing.
+ * 
+ * {@link MapReduceJobPropertiesParser} thrives on the key name to decide which
+ * {@link DataType} to wrap the value with. Values for keys representing 
+ * job-name, queue-name, user-name etc are wrapped inside {@link JobName}, 
+ * {@link QueueName}, {@link UserName} etc respectively. Keys ending with *dir* 
+ * are considered as a directory and hence gets be wrapped inside 
+ * {@link FileName}. Similarly key ending with *codec*, *log*, *class* etc are
+ * also handled accordingly. Values representing basic java data-types like 
+ * integer, float, double, boolean etc are wrapped inside 
+ * {@link DefaultDataType}. If the key represents some jvm-level settings then 
+ * only standard settings are extracted and gets wrapped inside 
+ * {@link DefaultDataType}. Currently only '-Xmx' and '-Xms' settings are 
+ * considered while the rest are ignored.
+ * 
+ * Note that the {@link MapReduceJobPropertiesParser#parseJobProperty()} API 
+ * maps the keys to a configuration parameter listed in 
+ * {@link MRJobConfig}. This not only filters non-framework specific keys thus 
+ * ignoring user-specific and hard-to-parse keys but also provides a consistent
+ * view for all possible inputs. So if users invoke the 
+ * {@link MapReduceJobPropertiesParser#parseJobProperty()} API with either
+ * <"mapreduce.job.user.name", "bob"> or <"user.name", "bob">, then the result 
+ * would be a {@link UserName} {@link DataType} wrapping the user-name "bob".
