Avery Ching commented on GIRAPH-798:
------------------------------------
I've been a bit busy, but understand the frustration here. Let me see if I can
find a fix for the other Hadoop versions. Part of the problem is that we have
so many versions. I did test more than just the Facebook version. I don't
understand how Java 7 causes any breakage. Please understand that in the old
way, we have a lot of issues due to different versions of the same library
being included in a single jar. I'll try to spend the next day or two trying
to find a workaround.
> Upgrade Giraph to Java7 and fix all dependencies

> Key: GIRAPH-798
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GIRAPH-798
> Project: Giraph
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Avery Ching
> Assignee: Avery Ching
>
> We need to upgrade to Java 7, Java 6 is no longer supported and Java 7
> provides a lot of great new features.
> Additionally, we have a mess of dependencies.
> Incompatible versions, unspecified dependencies, and duplicate classes. We
> will add checks for all of them.
> For now, full checks are provided for the profiles
> hadoop_0.20.203
> hadoop_1.0
> hadoop_facebook
> Also, the hcatalog module is not fully fixed and excluded from the checking.
> We can fix this in the future.
