Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-338:
-----------------------------------

It would be great if the build works on cygwin, but this has proven tough to 
maintain for Hadoop, since most developers build only on Linux and/or MacOS.

> ant test-tools does not work under Cygwin

> The target "test-tools" invokes a shell script using "exec" task. Since the 
> shell scripts cannot be invoked directly by the Windows, it is required to 
> have the "exec" task with executable="sh" and then pass the script name as an 
> argument.
> This patch does just that.
