Hi All

As we supporting the Hadoop in windows, I feel, we should have pre-commit b=
uild in windows( atleast in qbt).

We've never had it work too well with Windows precommit & Jenkins; maybe so=
meone could volunteer to try again. What's important is not to overwhelm th=
e JIRAs with noise that gets ignored.


Background:

As of now pre-commit will not run on windows, we may end up with following


1)      Test cases  can fail in windows

2)      Compilation Error (now it's failing, after HADOOP-10075)


I've not had branch-3 building for a while, though maybe it's my Windows Se=
rver VM that's a mess. Maybe I should rm it and grab the limited-lifespan d=
ev box, then add the extra Hadoop bits https://developer.microsoft.com/en-u=
s/windows/downloads/virtual-machines

3)      Some feature might not work

It will be good, if we catch all these at time of commit. (Prevention is be=
tter than cure..:) )

I think a first step would be to have scheduled builds on windows; ideally =
with people caring that they are playing up.

Anyway,

+1 for more windows testing
