Roman Shaposhnik updated HDFS-1619:
-----------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
> Does libhdfs really need to depend on AC_TYPE_INT16_T, AC_TYPE_INT32_T,
> AC_TYPE_INT64_T and AC_TYPE_UINT16_T ?
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HDFS-1619
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1619
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement

>
> Currently configure.ac uses AC_TYPE_INT16_T, AC_TYPE_INT32_T, AC_TYPE_INT64_T
> and AC_TYPE_UINT16_T and thus requires autoconf 2.61 or higher.
> This prevents using it on such platforms as CentOS/RHEL 5.4 and 5.5. Given
> that those are pretty popular and also given that it is really difficult to
> find a platform
> these days that doesn't natively define intXX_t types I'm curious as to
> whether we can simply remove those macros or perhaps fail ONLY if we happen
> to be on such
> a platform.
> Here's a link to GNU autoconf docs for your reference:
