We're very new to Cassandra.
We implement org.apache.index.Indexdropping a JAR containing our
custom-index service into Cassandra's /lib/ subdirectory because this
subdirectory is on the classpath. It's early days yet, but I thought I'd
ask about the plans for Java 9 given that Jigsaw sort of closes the door
on classpath (though it doesn't shut and lock it absolutely).
What are Cassandra's plans in this direction? Do I have anything to fear
long-term? Given the importance of Stratio's Lucene index extension,
which uses this mechanism too, I'd guess no one wants to do anything
that would destroy that either, but I need to ask.
Many thanks,
Russ
