Tim Armstrong created IMPALA-6249:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Expose CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE via web UI for build type
detection
Key: IMPALA-6249
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-6249
Project: IMPALA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Infrastructure
Reporter: Tim Armstrong
IMPALA-6241 added a .cmake_build_type file with the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE value for
the last build. The file is used to detect the type of the build that the
python tests are running against. However, this assumes that the tests are
running from the same directory that the Impala cluster under test was built
from, which isn't necessarily true for all dev workflows and for remote cluster
tests.
It would be convenient if CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE was exposed from the Impalad web UI.
Currently we expose DEBUG/RELEASE depending on the value of NDEBUG - see
GetVersionString() and impalad-host:25000/?json=true, but we could expose the
precise build type, then allow the python tests to parse it from the web UI.
