-----------------------------------------
Summary: By default, Cassandra should refuse to start if JNA can't
be initialized properly
Key: CASSANDRA-6575
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6575
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Reporter: Tupshin Harper
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.1
Failure to have JNA working properly is such a common undetected problem that
it would be far preferable to have Cassandra refuse to startup unless JNA is
initialized. In theory, this should be much less of a problem with Cassandra
2.1 due to CASSANDRA-5872, but even there, it might fail due to native lib
problems, or might otherwise be misconfigured. A yaml override, such as
boot_without_jna would allow the deliberate overriding of this policy.
