If you can avoid it, don't install or run another Hadoop on your system. This is an easy source of problems when developing as out-of-date binaries, headers and configuration files can get silently picked up.

Developer Tooling

Impala developers use the following tooling to work on the code base:

• vim
  • https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe. Smart completion, including understanding C++ code and highlighting errors.
    • Install Vundle by following instructions at https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim
    • Install the YouCompleteMe Vim plugin with the following steps.
      • Add plugin to .vimrc in the Vundle section: 

        Plugin 'Valloric/YouCompleteMe' 

         

      • Run
        

        vim +PluginInstall +qall  # from the command line

         

      • Finish compiling YCM with clang support:
        

        cd ~/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe
        ./install.sh --clang-completer
