Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-3204: --------------------------------------- For this case we must be able to use dfs to do rm's. > Windows: Fix the unit tests which contains “!<cmd>” commands (Unix shell > commands) > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3204 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3204 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Tests, Windows > Affects Versions: 0.10.0 > Reporter: Kanna Karanam > Assignee: Kanna Karanam > Fix For: 0.10.0 > > > Possible solution 1: (Preferred one) > !<Unix cmd | Windows cmd> => Keeping the same syntax. Hive uses Java runtime > to launch the shell command so any attempt to run windows commands on Unix > will fail and vice versa. > To deal with unit tests. Unix commands in each .q file will be modified as > shown below. I will filter out the !commands which can’t be run on the > current . > Original entry in.q file: > !rm -rf ../build/ql/test/data/exports/exim_department; > It will be replaced with the following entries. > UNIX::!rm -rf ../build/ql/test/data/exports/exim_department; > WINDOWS::!del ../build/ql/test/data/exports/exim_department > Possible solution 2: > Provide a Shell UDF library(JAVA Based code)to support platform independent > shell functionality > Cons – > 1) Difficult to provide full shell functionality > 2) Takes long time > 3) Difficult to manage -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
