Kaide Mu commented on CASSANDRA-8928: ------------------------------------- Hi, [~pauloricardomg]. Thank you so much, just fixed format error and added ccm and StandaloneUpgrader to the proposal, I didn't realize that dtest runs on ccm. I'll check them out. Regarding {{OldFormatIterator}} and {{OldFormatDeserializer}}, I am trying to find them on Git repository but I didn't find anything, maybe after setting up the development environment I can decompile them. Also, can I use openJDK (7) instead of Oracle JDK? Because I'm trying to setting up Cassandra (trunk) with IDEA according to [RunningCassandraInIDEA|http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/RunningCassandraInIDEA|http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/RunningCassandraInIDEA] but it gives me a build failed error when I execute {{ant generate-idea-files}}. {code} build-project: [echo] apache-cassandra: /home/km/cassandra/build.xml [javac] Compiling 45 source files to /home/km/cassandra/build/classes/thrift [javac] javac: invalid target release: 1.8 [javac] Usage: javac <options> <source files> [javac] use -help for a list of possible options BUILD FAILED /home/km/cassandra/build.xml:769: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details. {code} I'll try it again, once I have it setted up, I'll take a look along with other materials [CASSANDRA-8888|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8888] which seems more suitable to start with. > Add downgradesstables > --------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-8928 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8928 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Tools > Reporter: Jeremy Hanna > Priority: Minor > Labels: gsoc2016, mentor > > As mentioned in other places such as CASSANDRA-8047 and in the wild, > sometimes you need to go back.
