Hi All, With the merge of HIVE-29027 [1], Hive now moves to compile-time support for JDK 21, taking another step forward in modernizing its stack. Going forward, compiling the Hive master branch will require at least JDK 21.
A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to the discussions, feedback, and reviews that made this happen. Note: JDK 21 support comes as part of the 4.2.x+ release. -Ayush [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-29027
