[jira] Updated: (HADOOP-3754) Support a Thrift Interface to access files/directories in HDFS

    Attachment: hadoopthrift3.patch

Incorporated most of Pete's and Craig's comments. Thanks folks!

I have renamed the package to thriftfs. I have also incorporated the "append" API to this package. This package now generates HDFS interfaces for Ruby, Cocoa, perl, php, python, etc.etc.

The generated files are not part of the source code. An "ant package" generates the API in all of the above languages. Thus, a binary package should contain these APIs. Does it sound ok to you?

> Thrift is a cross-language RPC framework. It supports automatic code generation for a variety of languages (Java, C++, python, PHP, etc) It would be nice if HDFS APIs are exposed though Thirft. It will allow applications written in any programming language to access HDFS.
