Description

org.apache.hadoop.metrics.Metrics.report() takes a long metricValue parameter that gets mapped by Java in the method implementation to MetricsRecord.setMetric(String,float) method. This should be made explicit in the Metrics.report() method parameters by changing the type of metricValue to float.
