Lior Zeno commented on FLUME-2935:
----------------------------------
I'll be much more verbose regarding the changes I've made in this patch.
All the changes I've made are related to the build process and to the
documentation.
# Renamed README to README.textile in order to allow github to properly render
the headings, i.e. instead of rendering h1 it will actually render a heading.
In addition, I changed the requirement to JDK 1.7 instead of JDK 1.6.
# FlumeUserGuide.rst: I changed the system requirements to Java 1.7 instead of
1.6 with a recommendation on 1.7. I did not add a recommendation for 1.8, since
I do not see a reason for that. More over, I removed the note on the
TailDirSource saying it requires 1.7, since it is the minimum required for the
project.
# flume-ng-sinks/flume-ng-elasticsearch-sink/pom.xml: This pom file had two
identical dependencies, therefore I removed one of them (httpclient). This was
generating a warning in the beginning of the build.
# KafkaLocal.java: The tests threw a MethodNotFoundException, since there isn't
a constructor for KafkaConfig with a java.util.properties parameter. Instead, I
used the static method KafkaConfig.fromProps.
# Main pom.xml: I changed the sourceJavaVersion and targetJavaVersion to 1.7.
In addition, I removed the test dependency hadoop-minicluster since it is
already required as a "normal" dependency. Maven was complaining about that as
well.
Let me know if you want to split these changes into multiple small issues, or
we can deal with them in this issue since it's about making Flume build
properly under 1.7.
