Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-11875:
-----------------------------------------

I shouldn't have mentioned JSP. Nothing uses it. 

# everything builds and runs on Java 8, you can just get a warning about using 
{{_}} as a variable/method name
# that will become illegal on Java 9
# but given what else breaks on java 9, I doubt that's the main part of the 
trouble.

FWIW, I do like the new HDFS UI. And I do think we could improve the YARN UI 
too. It's just that hamlet is picked up downstream and used. To move people off 
it would mean providing a nice, easy to use alternative. Which doesn't have to 
be implemented in hadoop core -if there is one just as simple which we could 
point people at, that would work

> From JDK8, _ as a one-character identifier is disallowed. Currently Web UI 
> uses it. We should fix them to compile with JDK8.
