Patrick Hunt commented on ZOOKEEPER-1918: ----------------------------------------- bq. I know I am not alone, but can we get PRODUCTION support for windows? If not, could you explain the reason? bq. I wasn't involved in defining the support level, so I'll let other people answer the question. I personally don't understand what development support and production support mean. Some history/rational. The basic issue has been that the community primarily developed and deployed using Linux. There was some interest in windows, but not sufficient such that, say someone could work on an issue reported by a windows user. Perhaps we're at a point now where we have enough interest, I'm not sure. IMO "production support" doesn't mean much, other than perhaps that people feel confident enough in the current status that they are running it in production. Other folks can use that as an indication that "it works". > Add 64 bit Windows as a supported development platform > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-1918 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-1918 > Project: ZooKeeper > Issue Type: Task > Components: documentation > Reporter: Michi Mutsuzaki > Assignee: Michi Mutsuzaki > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.5.0 > > Attachments: ZOOKEEPER-1918-VS2013.patch, ZOOKEEPER-1918.patch > > > Change this line: > Win32 is supported as a development platform only for both server and client. > to: > Win32 and Win64 are supported as a development platform only for both server > and client. > http://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/trunk/zookeeperAdmin.html#sc_supportedPlatforms -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
