[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-11464) Reinstate support for launching Hadoop processes on Windows using Cygwin.

Chris Nauroth created HADOOP-11464:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Reinstate support for launching Hadoop processes on Windows using Cygwin.
                 Key: HADOOP-11464
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11464
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: bin
            Reporter: Chris Nauroth
            Assignee: Chris Nauroth


The Windows compatibility work removed the dependency on Cygwin as a compatibility layer.  However, some users may still wish to run Cygwin on a personal machine for running Hadoop commands that interact with a cluster.  This issue proposes to reinstate support for launching Hadoop processes on Windows using Cygwin to call the bash scripts.
