I know it was decided to drop the requirement for Java 1.6 for cassandra some
time ago, but my question is should
2.0.0-beta1<http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi?path=/cassandra/2.0.0/apache-cassandra-2.0.0-beta1-bin.tar.gz>
run under java 1.6 at all ? I tried and got the following error:
macaroon:bin administrator$ Exception in thread "main"
