Dave Brosius commented on CASSANDRA-7028:
-----------------------------------------
My understanding is that jars that are needed to run cassandra must be
committed into the repo in c*/lib. While I agree that seems silly, that's the
way it is, i think for making sure we don't forget about licenses or whatnot.
> Allow C* to compile under java 8

> antlr 3.2 has a problem with java 8, as described here:
> http://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8015656
> updating to antlr 3.5.2 solves this, however they have split up the jars
> differently, which adds some changes, but also the generation of
> CqlParser.java causes a method to be too large, so i needed to split that
> method to reduce the size of it.
> (patch against trunk)
