Scott Carey commented on MAPREDUCE-1700: ---------------------------------------- If we are lucky, projecct jigsaw will be pulled back into Java 8. According to: http://mreinhold.org/blog/late-for-the-train-qa it has not yet been decided. If it is brought back in, then perhaps we can wait until Java has a module system 1 to 1.5 years from now. If not, I do not think Hadoop can wait until Java 9, sometime 2015 to 2016 ish. > User supplied dependencies may conflict with MapReduce system JARs > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MAPREDUCE-1700 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1700 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: task > Reporter: Tom White > Assignee: Tom White > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-1700.patch, MAPREDUCE-1700.patch > > > If user code has a dependency on a version of a JAR that is different to the > one that happens to be used by Hadoop, then it may not work correctly.
