HI Guys, I am wondering what do you guys think if we make Flink requires Java7 for both compile and runtime?
Several reasons why I am proposing this: 1. Java6 has reached end of life as announced by Oracle. We have seen compile error happening with some versions of Java 6 2. Flink is just starting and hence have more flexibility to move to Java 7 3. Flink does not have compile dependencies that requires Java 6 4. Java 7 enhancements: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/jdk7-relnotes-418459.html Let me know what do you guys think. - Henry
