Chuan Liu updated HADOOP-8235:
------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
In this patch, we create a native Windows console program to emulate certain
Linux command line utilities that are used by Hadoop to set file permissions,
ownership, and query file status. The Windows program does not support full
command line semantic and functionalities as the equivalent Linux commands. We
only provide enough support for the Hadoop usage. The source code can be built
on Windows with all versions of Visual Studio 10, including Visual Studio
Express 10. The solution file and project file are also generated in Visual
Studio 10. (Note for Visual Studio Express: Visual Studio Express does not
include compiler for X64 platform. To build on X64 platform, Windows SDK is
needed.)
Corresponding Java code, e.g. Shell.java, are also modified for Hadoop to pick
up the correct commands on Windows. There are also a few file permission
related test fixes due to different OS behaviors.
This is just an initial patch for review and collecting feedbacks from
community.
We will later adding tests for the Windows program and make changes based on
the feedbacks.
