Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-16196: ---------------------------------------- When we make this change we should first make sure it doesn't break any of our helper scripts like region_mover.rb. I can attest at least that one is used in HBase operations. We don't have test coverage it so it will need to be checked by hand. > Update jruby to a newer version. > -------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-16196 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16196 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: dependencies, shell > Reporter: Elliott Clark > Assignee: Matt Mullins > Attachments: 0001-Update-to-JRuby-9.1.2.0-and-JLine-2.12.patch, > hbase-16196.branch-1.patch > > > Ruby 1.8.7 is no longer maintained. > The TTY library in the old jruby is bad. The newer one is less bad. > Since this is only a dependency on the hbase-shell module and not on > hbase-client or hbase-server this should be a pretty simple thing that > doesn't have any backwards compat issues. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
