> [JDK8] Set minimum version of Hadoop 2 to JDK 8
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-16219
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-16219
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 2.10.0
> Reporter: Steve Loughran
> Priority: Major
>
> Java 7 is long EOL; having branch-2 require it is simply making the release
> process a pain (we aren't building, testing, or releasing on java 7 JVMs any
> more, are we?).
> Staying on java 7 complicates backporting, JAR updates for CVEs (hello
> Guava!) &c are becoming impossible.
> Proposed: increment javac.version = 1.8
