Aljoscha Krettek commented on FLINK-8177: ----------------------------------------- I simply changed the test to not extend {{Container}} but to instead mock it. This way we get around the differing interfaces for different Hadoop versions. We probably should not offer a hadoop 2.9.0 release for 1.4.0 because that would require further testing but if this travis run succeeds I'm somewhat confident that users can just use the "Hadoop-free" binary release and drop in whatever hadoop version they like or use it on YARN. > Flink cannot be built for Hadoop 2.9.0 > -------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-8177 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8177 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Bug > Components: YARN > Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.5.0 > Reporter: Fabian Hueske > Priority: Critical > > Flink cannot be built for Hadoop 2.9.0 which was released on Nov. 17th, 2017. > When running > {code} > mvn clean install -DskipTests -Dhadoop.version=2.9.0 > {code} > Maven fails with the following error: > {code} > [ERROR] > /Users/fhueske/Development/flink/flink-yarn/src/test/java/org/apache/flink/yarn/UtilsTest.java:[239,16] > org.apache.flink.yarn.UtilsTest.TestingContainer is not abstract and does > not override abstract method > setExecutionType(org.apache.hadoop.yarn.api.records.ExecutionType) in > org.apache.hadoop.yarn.api.records.Container > {code} > The problem is caused, because Hadoop 2.9.0 extended the {{Container}} > interface with a getter ({{getExecutionType()}}) and a setter method > ({{setExecutionType()}}) and adds a class dependency on {{ExecutionType}}. > Flink's {{UtilsTest}} class defines a class {{TestingContainer}} that > implements the {{Container}} interface. > We cannot simply update the implementation of {{TestingContainer}} because > previous versions of Hadoop do not provide {{ExecutionType}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
