Zhanwei Wang commented on HDFS-6994: ------------------------------------ Hi Wenwu It seems the same. Libhdfs3 is well tested and already used by many HAWQ customers. As HADOOP-10388 is just started for not long time, I'm glad to open source it to save time for everyone. Currently, libhdfs3 support OSX 10.7+ and linux platform, and is tested on RHEL5 and RHEL6 with GCC 4.4 and Clang. Current code coverage is 80% and our QA team is adding more fault injection test. I think libhdfs3 should also be a good code base for further development mentioned in HADOOP-10388. > libhdfs3 - A native C/C++ HDFS client > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-6994 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6994 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Task > Components: hdfs-client > Reporter: Zhanwei Wang > Attachments: HDFS-6994.patch > > > Hi All > I just got the permission to open source libhdfs3, which is a native C/C++ > HDFS client based on Hadoop RPC protocol and HDFS Data Transfer Protocol. > libhdfs3 provide the libhdfs style C interface and a C++ interface.
