Paulo Motta commented on CASSANDRA-8928:
----------------------------------------
bq. Regarding OldFormatIterator and OldFormatDeserializer, I am trying to find
them on Git repository but I didn't find anything
[OldFormatIterator|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/search?q=OldFormatIterator]
and
[OldFormatDeserializer|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/search?q=OldFormatDeserializer]
;-)
bq. Also, can I use openJDK (7) instead of Oracle JDK? Because I'm trying to
setting up Cassandra (trunk) with IDEA according to RunningCassandraInIDEA but
it gives me a build failed error when I execute ant generate-idea-files.
Generally you can, but you can probably save yourself few headaches by using
Oracle JDK. It would help if you posted the compiler error output to find out
what's the problem. Also, for more practical questions like this, #cassandra
and/or #cassandra-dev on irc.freenode.net is usually a better (and faster)
forum.
bq. I'll try it again, once I have it setted up, I'll take a look along with
other materials CASSANDRA-8888 which seems more suitable to start with.
Sounds good. Make sure to post any comments/questions related to that ticket
there.

> As mentioned in other places such as CASSANDRA-8047 and in the wild,
> sometimes you need to go back. A downgrade sstables utility would be nice
> for a lot of reasons and I don't know that supporting going back to the
> previous major version format would be too much code since we already support
> reading the previous version.
