Hi Folks, Wanted to know thoughts on removing the upgrade-acid module[1] from 4.x. The javadoc on one of the main files[2] read "This utility is designed to help with upgrading Hive 2.x to Hive 3.0". I think this is a 2.x to 3.x thing and doesn't look relevant for Hive-4.x. Checking the git log, I don't find any relevant development happening on this either.
The main challenge that this brings is that it depends on legacy Hive(2.3.3) & Hadoop(2.7.2) [3], which aren't JDK-11 compliant & it blocks the way for Hive JDK-11 compile time support. Let me know your thoughts!!! -Ayush [1] https://github.com/apache/hive/tree/master/upgrade-acid [2] https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/upgrade-acid/pre-upgrade/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/upgrade/acid/PreUpgradeTool.java#L86C4-L86C72 [3] https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/upgrade-acid/pre-upgrade/pom.xml#L38-L39
