Enhance the build.sh script to support building a subset of the available
language bindings
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: AVRO-829
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-829
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build
Environment: POSIX compatible operating systems.
Reporter: Joseph Koshy
Avro supports a number of language bindings, currently: {{c}}, {{c++}}, {{c#}},
{{java}}, {{ruby}}, {{php}}, {{python}}.
The top level build script ({{build.sh}}) attempts to build all language
bindings by default. Thus, building Avro from source requires compilers and
interpreters for *all* these languages to be present on a developer's system.
The attached patch adds support for a {{-l}} _LANG_ option to {{build.sh}},
allowing the build to be restricted to the specified language(s). This feature
allows someone interested in just a few bindings to build only the relevant
parts of the Avro source tree.
