Gunther Hagleitner commented on HIVE-5112: ------------------------------------------ I believe updating the dependency and leaving the generated code won't work. The lib isn't backwards compatible wrt to old generated code. I think the only real guarantee around compat is on the wire protocol. With that: I think waiting until 2.1.0-beta and switching to that with proto 2.5 at the same time is still the best option. > Upgrade protobuf to 2.5 from 2.4 > -------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-5112 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5112 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Brock Noland > Assignee: Owen O'Malley > Attachments: HIVE-5112.D12429.1.patch > > > Hadoop and Hbase have both upgraded protobuf.
