Jason Kushmaul commented on FLUME-2994: --------------------------------------- I manually tested this on macOSX El Capitan, and a Windows 8.1 VM and I was able to observe the tailed changes in files flow through to the sink. I can provide conf file for both systems if needed. > flume-taildir-source: support for windows > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: FLUME-2994 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2994 > Project: Flume > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Sinks+Sources, Windows > Affects Versions: v1.7.0 > Reporter: Jason Kushmaul > Priority: Trivial > Fix For: v1.7.0 > > Attachments: FLUME-2994-2.patch, flume-2994-1.patch > > Original Estimate: 168h > Remaining Estimate: 168h > > The current implementation of flume-taildir-source does not support windows. > The only reason for this from what I can see is a simple call to > Files.getAttribute(file.toPath(), "unix:ino"); > I've tested an equivalent for windows (which of course does not work on > non-windows). With an OS switch we should be able to identify a file > independent of file name on either system. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
