Robert Stupp resolved CASSANDRA-11987.
--------------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
This issue is already mentioned in CASSANDRA-9608. At the moment, Java 9 is not
production ready and changes a lot of things. Since it's still 8 or 9 (?)
months until Java 9 release, it's not really critical. Let's see, how it looks
then in a few months.
> Cassandra support for JDK 9
> ---------------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-11987
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11987
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Environment: JDK9
> Reporter: shylaja kokoori
> Priority: Minor
>
> Hi,
> I tried to compile Cassandra with JDK 9 and ran into compilation issues
> because monitorEnter/monitorExit functions have been removed from
> sun.misc.Unsafe in JDK9
> (http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jdk9-hs-rt-changes/2015-January/000773.html).
> Is there a specific reason why Cassandra uses these Unsafe APIs instead of
> say java.util.concurrent.locks?
> Thanks,
> shylaja
