Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-5514:
---------------------------------------

I think this is fine as a first step. It does not contain all the changes 
needed to have identical Java 7 code in trunk and 4.x. The problem are merged 
stuff that was fixed to be Java 6 compliant while merging. This is hard to 
detect. Some of those were already fixed (like compare methods implemented with 
Long.signum), but others like multi-catch not. I don't think we should put too 
much effort in fixing this. It is important that the optimized methods for Java 
7 are used in the comparators (intrinsics) and also the new FileChannel APIs 
are used.

> This issue tracks the backporting of various issues that are related to Java 
> 7 to 4.8.
> It will also revert "build fixes" that worked around compile failures 
> (especially stuff like {{Long/Integer.compare()}}.
> I will attach a patch soon (for review).
