---------------------------------------
Summary: Drop support for Ruby 1.8
Key: AVRO-1559
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1559
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Wish
Affects Versions: 1.7.7
Reporter: Willem van Bergen
- Ruby 1.8 is EOL, and is even security issues aren't addressed anymore.
- It is also getting hard to set up Ruby 1.8 to run the tests (e.g. on a recent
OSX, it won't compile without manual fiddling).
- Handling character encodings in Ruby 1.9 is very different than Ruby 1.8.
Supporting both at the same time adds a lot of overhead.
