>
> Today, our way of detecting whether client and server jars are different is
> by comparing the static member variable values in MetadataProtocol.java. The
> check is hacky and could easily break once we start considering clusters
> upgraded to snapshot and "sunk" RC jars. The current mechanism is also prone
> to bugs when developers forget to change the member variable values even
> though they changed the underlying metadata.
> If the jar names could be written to a MANIFEST file, then we can have a
> mechanism of detecting whether client and server jars belong to different
> versions or if they are incompatible.
