Hello. As some of you might know we have the license for great concurrency analysis software from SureLogic.
SureLogic engineers gave some run for HDFS, MR, and Zookeeper code at the end of last year. The tools seem very promising and supposedly bring us the value (linked from the page below). Please read this Wiki page to get more information about the tool and to get some understanding how it works http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToUseConcurrencyAnalysisTools Here's the additional information on how to install/upgrade to the latest release: http://surelogic.com/static/eclipse/install.html There's also a couple of JIRAs w/ patches (HDFS-801, MAPREDUCE-1259) to integrate annotations into our current source code base. The annotations are represented as a jar file with some interface classes. They are redistributed under Apache license. The retention policy of annotations are 'compile time', i.e. this jar isn't required for the runtime of Hadoop. It'd be great to hear community thoughts on this so we can make some decision about this toolset. Please comment. Thanks Cos
