Hi All, Apology to everyone in case my question has been dealt before.If the question has been answered before please do provide me the link .
Basically, I want to start contributing to Hadoop by submitting patches mostly from Map Reduce issues. 1. Assuming I create a patch, now I want to test the patch. 2. Basically, I want to work from eclipse and make use of the breakpoints supported by eclipse. 3. Assuming I ran all the hadoop daemons in single node. 4. Will the eclipse plugin included in hadoop work for submiting the jobs and hit the breakpoints , this is because I want to trace the code. 5. Normally, how do the Hadoop committers setup their Hadoop development setup look like. Do they use eclipse to set breakpoints in the eclipse ide. 6. If I use eclipse , learning curve of Hadoop code base would be very easy. Can somebody guide me how do I submit my job from eclipse and set breakpoints in Hadoop core code in JobTracker, TaskTracker etc. Regards thoihen
