Hey gang. HADOOP-14316 enables the spotbugs back-end for the findbugs front-end. Spotbugs (https://spotbugs.github.io/) is the fork of findbugs that the community and some of the major contributors have made to move findbugs forward. It is geared towards JDK8 and JDK9.
Before I commit, I wanted to give a heads up to the community about this change. After committal, there will be (approx) 62 new findbugs issues that will pop up in the source tree. My quick pass over a handful of them indicates that a good number are legit/not false positives (and one of them, well, we got lucky it's an API that no one updates/uses). It will take the community to fix up those 62 problems, either by actually fixing them (better) or exempting them (not great, but sometimes required). Thanks. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-dev-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-dev-h...@hadoop.apache.org
