Summary: Hadoop branch-2 to set java language version to 1.8
Key: HADOOP-16219
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-16219
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build
Affects Versions: 2.10.0
Reporter: Steve Loughran
Java 7 is long EOL; having branch-2 require it is simply making the release
process a pain (we aren't building, testing, or releasing on java 7 JVMs any
more, are we?).
Staying on java 7 complicates backporting, JAR updates for CVEs (hello Guava!)
&c are becoming impossible.
Proposed: increment javac.version = 1.8
