Kevin Lyda created HADOOP-9282:
----------------------------------
Summary: Java 7 support
Key: HADOOP-9282
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9282
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Components: documentation
Reporter: Kevin Lyda
The Hadoop Java Versions page makes no mention of Java 7.
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HadoopJavaVersions
Java 6 is EOL as of this month ( http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_6.xml
) and that's after extending the date twice:
https://blogs.oracle.com/henrik/entry/java_6_eol_h_h While Oracle has recently
released a number of security patches, chances are more security issues will
come up and we'll be left running clusters we can't patch if we stay with Java
6.
Does Hadoop support Java 7 and if so could the docs be changed to indicate that?
