Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-4958: --------------------------------------------- I'm not too fan of using a beta version, no matter how stable the git history looks like. So I see two way of moving forward: # maybe M3 is indeed pretty stable and the author of snappy-java just didn't take the time to do a stable release. But imo only the snappy-java author knows that and we should maybe bug him to see if he would be good doing a stable release or if not, when we can expect one. # there's apparently a pure java implem of snappy (https://github.com/dain/snappy). It's slightly slower on decompression so I'm not sure we want to have it the default, but we could use it as a fallback when loading the native version fails. Which would also give us a fallback for more exotic platform where the native version is just not available. I note that I list both possibilities, but I'd lie if I said any of them was on my priority list. So feel free to bug the snappy-java author if you want this issue resolved :) > Snappy 1.0.4 doesn't work on OSX / Java 7 > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-4958 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4958 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.2.0 beta 2 > Reporter: Colin Taylor > Priority: Minor > > Fixed in 1.0.5-M3 see : > https://github.com/xerial/snappy-java/issues/6 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
