Alex Levenson commented on PARQUET-342:
---------------------------------------

Thanks for the fixes. I think this opens up the discussion of: do we need to / 
want to continue supporting java 6 in parquet? 
That might be worth starting a thread on the mailing list about.


> Can't build Parquet on Java 6

>                 Key: PARQUET-342
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-342
>             Project: Parquet
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: parquet-mr

> I am having problems building the latest master with Java 6. I tried building 
> the whole project 
> {noformat}mvn clean install -DskipTests{noformat}
>  and I also tried building individual modules 
> {noformat}mvn --projects parquet-common -am -amd -U clean install 
> -DskipTests{noformat}
> Both fail with the same error shown below. SemanticVersion class uses 
> Integer.compare(int,int) which was introduced in Java 1.7, but, AFAIK and 
> according to the pom file (and to PARQUET-146) Parquet should still be built 
> using Java 6. Similarly TestInputOutputFormatWithPadding and 
> TestInputOutputFormat classes depend on java.nio.file package that was 
> introduced in Java 1.7
> When I switch over to Java 7 the build succeeds.
