[jira] [Commented] (HDFS-6994) libhdfs3 - A native C/C++ HDFS client

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6994?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14254953#comment-14254953 ] 

Suresh Srinivas commented on HDFS-6994:
---------------------------------------

Folks, I have not caught up with all the comments. I wanted to know how we want to handle the following things:
- Coding guidelines - we should adopt one. We could perhaps start with [google cpp guide|https://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/cppguide.html]
- As we have started implementing large code base in c/cpp, we need unit tests. We should not be committing code without unit tests. We could adopt [google test|https://code.google.com/p/googletest/]

Without these two prerequisites, we will not be able to have consistent coding, ability to effectively collaborate within the community and no way to unit test and ensure correctness.

> 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. Support both HADOOP RPC version 8 and 9. Support Namenode HA and Kerberos authentication.
> libhdfs3 is currently used by HAWQ of Pivotal
> I'd like to integrate libhdfs3 into HDFS source code to benefit others.
> You can find libhdfs3 code from github
> https://github.com/PivotalRD/libhdfs3
