Flavio Junqueira commented on ZOOKEEPER-102: -------------------------------------------- I think we should leave this open. It does seem like a tough one at this point, but I still have hope that it can happen some day. We should consider doing a 4.0.0 version so that we can break compatibility. > Need to replace Jute with supported code > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-102 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-102 > Project: ZooKeeper > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Benjamin Reed > > ZooKeeper currently uses Jute to serialize objects to put on the wire and on > disk. We pulled Jute out of Hadoop and added a C binding. Both versions of > Jute have evolved (although Hadoop still doesn't have a C binding). It would > be nice to use a more standard serialization library. Some options include > Thrift or Google's protocol buffers. > Our main requirements would be Java and C bindings and good performance. (For > example, serializing to XML would give us incredibly bad performance and > would not be acceptible!) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
