Sean Owen commented on SPARK-10447:
-----------------------------------
I bet there are some upsides to updating, but the question is: do we know if
anything breaks, changes? Worth at least running the tests with this change,
but also skimming the release notes to understand any breaking changes.
> Upgrade pyspark to use py4j 0.9

> Key: SPARK-10447
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-10447
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: PySpark
> Affects Versions: 1.4.1
> Reporter: Justin Uang
>
> This was recently released, and it has many improvements, especially the
> following:
> {quote}
> Python side: IDEs and interactive interpreters such as IPython can now get
> help text/autocompletion for Java classes, objects, and members. This makes
> Py4J an ideal tool to explore complex Java APIs (e.g., the Eclipse API).
> Thanks to @jonahkichwacoders
> {quote}
> Normally we wrap all the APIs in spark, but for the ones that aren't, this
> would make it easier to offroad by using the java proxy objects.
