Summary: Enforce JDK 1.7 for storm-kafka Key: STORM-680 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-680 Project: Apache Storm Issue Type: Bug Components: storm-kafka Affects Versions: 0.10.0 Reporter: jayapriya surendran Assignee: jayapriya surendran Priority: Minor ExponentialBackoffMsgRetryManager.java uses Long.compare(long1, long2) method which is specific to JDK 7. {code} public int compare(MessageRetryRecord record1, MessageRetryRecord record2) { return Long.compare(record1.retryTimeUTC, record2.retryTimeUTC); } {code} As per the comment in this commit https://github.com/apache/storm/commit/fd066985a74c3140f61a465cfc49c83a6ddfa713 we should enforce JDK 1.7 as the minimum requirement for storm-kafka. Alternate fix is to change Long.compare() method to Long.compareTo() which is compatible with JDK 1.6. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
