I'm planning to flip the Javac language & JVM settings to java 7 this week
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10530 the latest patch also has a profile that sets the language to java8, for the curious; one bit of code will need patching to compile there. The plan for the change ASF-side is: 1 -switch jenkins patch/regular commits to java7 2 -apply the HADOOP-10530 patch locally, anyone who runs Jenkins with Java 6 will have to upgrade/switch JVM after (2), and anyone with JAVA_HOME set to a jdk 6 JDK is going to have to edit their environment variables. Is there anything else we need to do before the big Java 7 switch? -Steve -- CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE NOTICE: This message is intended for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is confidential, privileged and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
