Benjamin Lerer commented on CASSANDRA-13333:
--------------------------------------------
I did a bit of digging. JNA is actually used on {{Windows}} by
{{org.apache.cassandra.utils.WindowsTimer}}. So it makes sense to block startup
if JNA is not there.
> Cassandra does not start on Windows due to 'JNA link failure'
