Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-5112: ------------------------------------- There are discussions in the hadoop mailing lists about having the hadoop 2 GA in few weeks. So I think it is worthwhile that we aim to have 0.12 to be compatible with the hadoop 2 line as well. [~appodictic] I don't think your -1 is reasonable for the following reasons- - I don't consider it feasible to stop upgrading jars in hive because the old version of jar was used by some udf/serde/inputformat. (But I do think that in long term we need to explore ways of isolating the hive jars/classes vs user jars/classes) - In the example you cited, as Sushanth mentioned, you don't need to make any code changes to use protobuf 2.5. I suspect most users who are using protobuf with dynamic schema would not choose to work with generated code. So the number of users this is likely to affect is small. - The upgrade is inevitable. With it being in trunk, it is in its way into the 0.13 release. I request you to please reconsider your -1. > Upgrade protobuf to 2.5 from 2.4 > -------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-5112 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5112 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Brock Noland > Assignee: Owen O'Malley > Fix For: 0.13.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-5112.2.patch, HIVE-5112.D12429.1.patch > > > Hadoop and Hbase have both upgraded protobuf.
