Hi Pawan, The complete way releases are built (for v0.20/v1.0) is documented at http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToRelease#Building However, that does a bunch of stuff you don't need, like generate the documentation and do a ton of cross-checks.
The full set of ant build targets are defined in build.xml in the top level of the source code tree. "binary" may be the target you want. --Matt On Thu, Mar 8, 2012 at 3:35 PM, Pawan Agarwal <pawan.agar...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi, > > I am trying to generate hadoop binaries from source and execute hadoop from > the build I generate.
