Binglin Chang commented on HDFS-6994: ------------------------------------- This is more like a cli(or repl) rather than rpc. On native side, we can wrap the repl to rpc interface, but it only requires to serialize c++ arguments to json strings(using sprintf should be enough) I see most commonly used methods' arguments and return value are just simple primitive types. Methods with complex types are not likely to be used. > libhdfs3 - A native C/C++ HDFS client > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-6994 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6994 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: hdfs-client > Reporter: Zhanwei Wang > Assignee: Zhanwei Wang > Attachments: HDFS-6994-rpc-8.patch, HDFS-6994.patch > > > Hi All > I just got the permission to open source libhdfs3, which is a native C/C++ > HDFS client based on Hadoop RPC protocol and HDFS Data Transfer Protocol. > libhdfs3 provide the libhdfs style C interface and a C++ interface.
