Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-6994:
--------------------------------------------
[~wangzw], can you add some "minimum compiler version" guidelines to the README
in {{./hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/contrib/libhdfs3/README.apt.vm}}?
This will help clear up some confusion, I bet.
I also think a lot of the exception stuff could be simplified a lot... we
should be following the Google style guide, as mentioned earlier, so exceptions
should not be used here. Probably having a catch (std::exception) with logging
and a catch (...) block is enough for the C APIs. That would also reduce the
number of esoteric compiler features we were using.

> 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. Support
> both HADOOP RPC version 8 and 9. Support Namenode HA and Kerberos
> authentication.
> libhdfs3 is currently used by HAWQ of Pivotal
> I'd like to integrate libhdfs3 into HDFS source code to benefit others.
> You can find libhdfs3 code from github
> https://github.com/PivotalRD/libhdfs3
