Ismael Juma commented on KAFKA-4421: ------------------------------------ The release script that Ewen wrote handles this automatically: https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/2795/files So, we can close this once that script is merged. Once we move to Java 8, we can enable Scala 2.12 by default and simplify the release script. > Update release process so that Scala 2.12 artifacts are published > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-4421 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4421 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: build > Reporter: Ismael Juma > Fix For: 0.11.0.0 > > > Since Scala 2.12 requires Java 8 while Kafka still supports Java 7, the *All > commands don't include Scala 2.12. As such, simply running releaseTarGzAll > won't generate the Scala 2.12 artifacts and we also need to run `./gradlew > releaseTagGz -PscalaVersion=2.12`. > The following page needs to be updated to include this and any other change > required: > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Release+Process -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
