I believe that if we ran the Jenkins builds with Java 8 we would catch these? this doesn't require dropping Java 7 support or anything.
@joshrosen I know we are just now talking about modifying the Jenkins jobs to remove old Hadoop configs. Is it possible to change the master jobs to use Java 8? can't hurt really in any event. Or maybe I'm mistaken and they already run Java 8 and it doesn't catch this until Java 8 is the target. Yeah this is going to keep breaking as javadoc 8 is pretty strict. Thanks Hyukjin. It has forced us to clean up a lot of sloppy bits of doc though.
