Jeremy Hanna commented on CASSANDRA-3734:
-----------------------------------------
I would think if they were still using Java 6 and aren't able to use JNA for
some reason? Or are we requiring Java 7 for v2?
> Support native link w/o JNA in Java7

> Java7 provides native support for hard links:
> http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/nio/file/Files.html#createLink(java.nio.file.Path,
> java.nio.file.Path)
> We should prefer this method when Java7 is the host.
