Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-4583:
-----------------------------------
Given that the last dependent JIRA HIVE-5263 is closed, I think we are ready to
close this JIRA as well. I ran a build based on trunk with JDK7, and all Hive
tests passed. There were a few hcat test case failures, but I believe they are
not related to JDK7, but are transient failures due to recent hcat rebase.
Please raise any concern you might have. Otherwise, the JIRA will be closed as
resolved in a day or two.
> Make Hive compile and run with JDK7

> Key: HIVE-4583
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4583
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Task
> Affects Versions: 0.11.0
> Reporter: Xuefu Zhang
> Assignee: Xuefu Zhang
>
> This is an umbrella ticket to cover all issues related to supporting JDK 7 in
> HIVE. Many such issues are expected. Of course, JDK 6 needs to continue to
> work.
> The major obstacles on the way supporting JDK7 are:
> 1. JDBC component needs to be upgraded because of JDBC interface changes in
> JDK7.
> 2. DataNucleus needs to be upgraded because the current version doesn't
> support JDK7.
> 3. Many test failures needs to be fixed. The majority of the failures are
> caused by JDK7 subtle behaviour change.
> 4. Build needs to be changed to accommodate JDK7 compiler.
