Allen Wittenauer updated HADOOP-14586:
--------------------------------------
Description:
You cannot use any pre-Hadoop 2.8 component anymore with the latest release
candidate build of Java 9, because it fails with an
StringIndexOutOfBoundsException in {{org.apache.hadoop.util.Shell#<clinit>}}.
This leads to a whole cascade of failing classes (next in chain is StringUtils).
The reason is that the release candidate build of Java 9 no longer has "-ea" in
the version string and the system property "java.version" is now simply "9".
This causes the following line to fail fatally:
{code:java}
private static boolean IS_JAVA7_OR_ABOVE =
System.getProperty("java.version").substring(0, 3).compareTo("1.7") >= 0;
{code}
Analysis:
- This code looks wrong, as comparing a version this way is incorrect.
- The {{substring(0, 3)}} is not needed, {{compareTo}} also works without it,
although it is still an invalid way to compare a version.

Maybe look at Lucene's source code (Constants.java) to have a better way in
doing this! -Sorry this is incredible to me!- Hardcoding string bounds into a
static initializer that are applied on a string that you have no control of
should not be in a static initializer.
This issue breaks Apache Solr from working with Java 9, so I set it to
"critical". We have to disable the whole Hadoop integration once Java 9 is
detected.
