Philip Zeyliger commented on AVRO-338:
--------------------------------------

test_tools.sh is a shell script because I hate writing shell scripts in ant :). 
 (The script invokes avro-tools with various arguments, and uses diff/cmp to 
make sure it gets expected results.)  For what it does, I'd prefer python to 
ant, but if I won't get in the way if you'd prefer ant.

> 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.
